Really interesting article from BBC News about how the fantastic city of New York gather their data and how it has completely revolutionised the city!
NYC's aim is to explore all of the data and then analyse it to do something beneficial for the population and tourists within!
It is fascinating to think of how the data can be used. Will it help healthcare? Will it help reduce traffic? Will it help people financially? The possibilities are literally endless here and I am sure that the ways used to monitor and analyse this data will be spread out throughout all the major capital cities across the World!
