This resource refers to a specific interactive web application developed by the Fitzlab, hosted on the shinyapps.io platform, and focused on city-related data or functionality. It leverages the Shiny framework in R to provide users with a dynamic and accessible interface for exploring urban datasets or simulations. For instance, it might visualize population density, analyze transportation patterns, or model urban development scenarios.
Such applications are valuable tools for urban planners, researchers, and policymakers. They provide a user-friendly means to analyze complex data sets, identify trends, and make informed decisions. The interactive nature allows for iterative exploration and “what-if” scenarios, facilitating a deeper understanding of urban dynamics. Historically, accessing this type of data and analysis required specialized software and expertise; these web applications democratize access.
