Recent technological advancements and other related factors and
trends are contributing to the production of an astoundingly large
and rapidly accelerating collection of data, or 'Big Data'. This
data now allows us to examine urban and regional phenomena in ways
that were previously not possible. Despite the tremendous potential
of big data for regional science, its use and application in this
context is fraught with issues and challenges. This book brings
together leading contributors to present an interdisciplinary,
agenda-setting and action-oriented platform for research and
practice in the urban and regional community. This book provides a
comprehensive, multidisciplinary and cutting-edge perspective on
big data for regional science. Chapters contain a collection of
research notes contributed by experts from all over the world with
a wide array of disciplinary backgrounds. The content is organized
along four themes: sources of big data; integration, processing and
management of big data; analytics for big data; and, higher level
policy and programmatic considerations. As well as concisely and
comprehensively synthesising work done to date, the book also
considers future challenges and prospects for the use of big data
in regional science. Big Data for Regional Science provides a
seminal contribution to the field of regional science and will
appeal to a broad audience, including those at all levels of
academia, industry, and government.
