Slides for "Urban indicators, city benchmarking, and real-time dashboards" talk

The Programmable City team delivered four papers at the Conference of the Association of American Geographers held in Tampa, April 8-12.  Here are the slides for Kitchin, R., Lauriault, T. and McArdle, G. (2014). “Urban indicators, city benchmarking, and real-time dashboards: Knowing and governing cities through open and big data” delivered in the session “Thinking the ‘smart city’: power, politics and networked urbanism II” organized by Taylor Shelton and Alan Wiig.  The paper is a work in progress and was the first attempt at presenting work that is presently being written up for submission to a journal.  No doubt it’ll evolve over time, but the central argument should hold.
