This book is mainly focused on two themes: transportation and smart
city applications. Open geospatial science and technology is an
increasingly important paradigm that offers the opportunity to promote
the democratization of geographical information, the transparency of
governments and institutions, as well as social, economic and urban
opportunities. During the past decade, developments in the area of
open geospatial data have greatly increased. The open source GIS
research community believes that combining free and open software,
open data, as well as open standards, leads to the creation of a
sustainable ecosystem for accelerating new discoveries to help solve
global cross-disciplinary urban challenges. The vision of this book is
to enrich the existing literature on this topic, and act one step
towards more sustainable cities through employment of open source GIS
solutions that are reproducible. Various contributions are provided
and practically implemented in several urban use cases. Therefore,
apart from researchers, lecturers and students in the
geography/urbanism domain, crowdsourcing and VGI domain, as well
as open source GIS domain, it is believed the specialists and mentors
in municipalities and urban planning departments as well as
professionals in private companies would be interested to read this
book.
