More than ever before, human life
revolves around the city.
In 1900,
13%
of the world’s
population
lived in cities.
In 2007, that
number surpassed
50%
—and it continues
to grow.*
By 2050,
70%
of all people on
earth will be city
dwellers.
* We are adding the
equivalent of seven
New Yorks to the
planet every year.

Our Cities Generate Vital Signs
Today, almost anything—any object, process or system—can be
instrumented, interconnected and infused with intelligence.
Data is lying in archives, published on government websites, being
sensed from instrumentation in the environment, deduced from
aerial imagery, and built from the ground-up by citizens
electronically communicating about city life.
This reality holds enormous promise for people everywhere. Nowhere
is the potential for progress more evident than in the world’s cities.

Adding data to City Forward
Once sources are identified there are still legal and technical steps
involved in adding data to City Forward.
Load into Database
Identify Data Source
Map to Data Structure
Review Legality
Assess the Value
Data challenges
• Some cities don’t have data that’s
publically available and free
• Each new source introduces
additional transformation rules
Value challenges
• Data isn’t at a city level
• Data doesn’t span years to
allow for patterns over time
Legal challenges
• Data is publicly available
but with restrictions, must
seek permission

Data Issues
Standard classifications
Integrating data from different countries introduces incompatibilities in classifications of
data. For example, defining poverty and education level varies by country. In
addition, defining the geography or time frame requires an administrative
organization to define the city or metro area boundaries and when the reporting
period starts and ends (e.g., school year).
Aggregation
Non-additive data such as indicators cannot be aggregated over geography, time, or
other classification. For example, unemployment rates, poverty rates, gross domestic
product per capita are indicators that must be recomputed by geographic level and
time frame. Having the unemployment rate at the county level cannot be summed to
compute the unemployment rate for the metro area.
Availability
Gathering data and making it available costs money. Most countries do not have data
like the US Census American Community Survey (ACS) that provides annual
estimates on many topics. The House of Representatives voted to eliminate funding
for the ACS and the Senate has yet to vote on the issue.

Options for data analysis and integration are
increasing
Government agencies are promoting not only data, but application
programming interfaces (APIs) and interactive widgets to help
developers get access to timely data
Sites like DBpedia, Freebase, and Tetherless World Constellation
(TWI) are cataloging data in Resource Description Language (RDF) to
make data accessible anywhere anytime.
Linked data is prominent at data.gov.uk, dublinked, and other open
data sites.
Non profit organizations are proving community level data to enhance
citizen engagement.

The Open Data Protocol (OData) is an
emerging standard
Based on web technology standards
HTTP, Atom Publishing Protocol (AtomPub), JSON, and REST
OData is used to access data in various data sources
Relational databases, file systems, content management, web sites, etc.
See ecosystem link on odata.org to see current list of
Consumers: Applications to process OData
