Urban Insights Data Lab

SAVE THE DATE – RESULTS AND NEXT STEPT   On October 24th, 14:00-17:00 Urban Insights Data Lab will showcase the many results that have come out of the project over the past two years. We have gathered the stakeholders in the eco-system for urban development and developed new data products, which can be used for urban development project across the public and private sector.   The collaboration between municipalities, private sector case-owners, data providers and others has resulted in new insights – as well as new data offers tailored for urban development. At this transition event, we will also present the model for a data collaborative for urban development and tell you what Urban Insights is about to transition into.   Sign up here for free to join the event: https://lnkd.in/dqSMcqZS   Ørestad has been the focus for the collection of data, so it is fitting that our transition event will take place here just as our launch did: Auditoriet HUB3 Arne Jacobsens Allé 13 2300 Copenhagen S October 24th, 2024, 14:00-17:00   Save the date – more info will follow!

SCOPING THE NEXT PHASE OF URBAN INSIGHTS In the second phase of the project, we want to help #danishmunicipalities work on concrete issues, they experience in their cities, using #data as a tool for #collaboration with multiple #stakeholders. WHY does data matter in urban transformation? 📈Being able to collect different types of #data about an area, gives #municipalities more solid arguments for #transformation. 🥊It also easier to onboard #citizens, #politicians, #localbusinesses, in the needed #tranformation, when there's strong data-driven arguments backing it up. ✏️better #knowledge about an area under transformation, allows #urbanplanners to design more precise #interventions. 🤝Lastly, #foundations and #investors are increasingly requiring #impact #measurement and #documentation, when they decide to finance and support #urbandevelopment projects.   We are developing a model for the #datacollaborative enabling all of the above. We look forward to showing you the results and present the next phase of the project.   #data #smartcities #urbandevelopment #innovation

LIVABLE CITIES - BELONGING AND COMMUNITY The takeaways from our last thematic workshop are now ready for you to enjoy and ponder on. Thank you everyone who has participated in our workshops. Your insights are helping us develop our model for Danmark’s first data collective for urban development. We are looking forward to presenting our preliminary findings in May.  Watch this space - we will soon announce the date! #data #smartcities #urbandevelopment #innovation #sustainability WE BUILD DENMARK

TAKEAWAYS ABOUT CLIMATE AND BIODIVERSITY Now they are here: some of the takeaways from the thematic workshop on climate and biodiversity. Thank you all who took part. Your insights are invaluable in the creation of a model for a data collaborative.

THANK YOU to all who took part in yesterday's thematic workshop on creating livable cities. Your engagement and input is exceedingly valuable in the process of creating a viable model for a data collaborative for urban development. Particular thanks goes to Rasmus Højmose Adser fra 3Insights and Astrid Sletten Rybner from VOLCANO for their presentations of what data can tell us about people's movements and attitudes in a particular neighbourhood and how this information can help create livable cities. #smartcities #data #urbandevelopment #communities #belonging

URBAN INSIGHTS AT AEC HACKATHON Over the weekend, Urban Insights presented a challenge at the AEC Hackathon held in BLOXHUB, Copenhagen. The challenge was: * How do we create new insights for sustainable urban development by using and combining new data sources? * How can it be visualized? * Can we find new patterns by combining data? Team Urban Hackers created a very useful prototype where a map shows movements of people and various segmentations can be applied. They also gave us great feedback that we can use in the further development of a good model for a data collaborative. A huge THANK YOU to Magnus Poppe Wang, Anna Ullersted Rasmussen, Thomas Hvidberg Dyhr, Nihit Borpujari, Haya Termanini and Martin Johansen for your dedicated work, great insights and useful perspectives! #urbandevelopment #aechackathon #data #smartcities
