The Microsoft Urban Futures Summer Workshop was three intensive days of talks, discussion, and planning for data-driven urban transformation. At this event, we built a research-driven coalition of civic, academic, and research leaders to envision what services could be built on top of data sets for improving the future of cities. Together we developed research and action plans for cities, academia, and industry, to conduct real-world research and deployments. We considered which data sets are needed to drive urban transformation based on real-world scenarios.
