Urban Computing
summary
Overview of a concrete system: Uber shows Kepler.gl visualizations and an Uber Movement open dataset of anonymized aggregates from over two billion trips, layered with DOT and NYPD crash points to diagnose a Dec 27 2017 Canal and Bowery fatality. Visuals render millions of data points with WebGL to reveal road segments with sustained speeds above limits hour by hour, tie speeding to roughly 10,000 of 40,000 annual US traffic deaths, and propose open-source frameworks and governance to scale solutions.
