The Urban Observatory

The Urban Observatory is a research initiative that collects real-time data from city environments using sensors, cameras, and other digital tools. It monitors aspects like air quality, traffic flow, energy use, weather, and public space activity to better understand urban life. This information helps city planners, officials, and residents make informed decisions to improve urban living, enhance sustainability, and reduce problems such as congestion and pollution. Essentially, the Urban Observatory acts as a technological eye on the city, providing valuable insights that contribute to smarter, healthier, and more efficient cities.
