This $1,750,000 Project Grant was awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) to the University of Illinois to develop cyberinfrastructure to catalyze and sustain an urban computing community.
The project aims to create open-source, cloud-based tools and infrastructure to enable data-driven exploration and modeling of urban data at scale. The cyberinfrastructure supports sharing, collaboration, and reproducibility to streamline urban research and democratize urban computing. Key objectives include: (1) developing scalable, reusable, and interoperable methods and tools for urban data discovery, cleaning, analytics, modeling, visualization, and reproducibility; and (2) deploying a collaborative environment to allow communities of users to quickly create reproducible analyses of diverse urban data sets. The project's intellectual merit lies in the novelty of the tools produced and the software engineering challenges involved in developing, maintaining, and supporting this widely adoptable cyberinfrastructure.
