Abstract

Since their emergence, digital information and communication technologies (ICTs) have been applied in many urban planning and management contexts. Not only do they have the capability for collecting, managing, analysing and storing information about cities more efficiently than ever before, but new technologies also present planners and managers with opportunities to draw on this information to improve city life.
