Research

Cities nowadays thrive on data of all kinds that help local government and business to plan, monitor and innovate. It is unclear, however, if and how people benefit from such Big, Open and Linked Data (BOLD) cities, where it seems their every feature, movement and behaviour is monitored. This citizen perspective leads the research in the Centre for BOLD Cities. It is a collaboration of Leiden University, Delft University of Technology and Erasmus University Rotterdam.The Centre for BOLD Cities is based on research and focuses on individual citizens and their experience in the (smart) city. The Centre aims to aid researchers in developing and conducting their research in this area, as well as to aid researchers in seeking out collaboration and joint initiatives. All of the Centre's research projects concern the position and development of urban policy and citizen experience. Our SHARED principles play an inevitable part in these projects, making it our mission to 'make BOLD cities SHARED'.
