Edited by thought leaders in the fields of urban informatics and urban interaction design; this book brings together case studies and examples from around the world to discuss the role that urban interfaces; citizen action; and city making play in the quest to create and maintain not only secure and resilient; but productive; sustainable and viable urban environments. The book debates the impact of these trends on theory; policy and practice. The individual chapters are based on blind peer reviewed contributions by leading researchers working at the intersection of the social / cultural; technical / digital; and physical / spatial domains of urbanism scholarship. The book will appeal not only to researchers and students; but also to a vast number of practitioners in the private and public sector interested in accessible content that clearly and rigorously analyses the potential offered by urban interfaces; mobile technology; and location-based services in the context of engaging people with open; smart and participatory urban environments.
