Can big data be used to revolutionise the way our cities function? Smart cities aim to bring cutting edge technology together with largescale datasets to design efficient and tailored transport systems for everyone. The more information we have about people’s commuting habits, when combined with innovative technologies, will help create a much higher quality service. Join us for a thought provoking discussion on the future of smart cities, big data, and the role of technology in shaping sustainable transport and encouraging active travel.
