This free 1-day event is part of a planned data workshop series at the Urban Big Data Centre. In the first in the series we will focus on the data and collection methods of our unique, cutting edge Integrated Multimedia City Data (iMCD) project. The purpose of this workshop is to help understand the data better, develop research ideas, share experiences, and explore collaboration potential. We are inviting a multi-disciplinary group who have already applied to use the iMCD datasets or have shown a keen interest in the project.
