About the Event

About the event

Too often the concept of “Smart Cities” has focused exclusively on dynamic data (e.g. traffic, footfall, energy consumption) with little, if any, consideration of the topography and morphology of urban areas themselves and how that fosters or inhibits these dynamic processes. Consequently, “BigData” researchers have been able to see what is happening but have been constrained in understanding the why. There has been an inherent disjoint between what is a city and how it operates. However, not only is such a bifurcation not inevitable, but it can be overcome through the clever application of existing and soon to be available capabilities. Thus, this presentation will introduce recent and emerging technologies in remote sensing and demonstrate how they can be used to produce better insights into predicting small business closures, identifying COVID-19 risk areas, protecting historic buildings, and improving community resilience against natural hazards. 


About the speaker

Debra F. Laefer

Professor of Urban Informatics & Director of Citizen Science

Center for Urban Science & Progress and the Department of Civil and Urban Engineering

New York University Tandon School of Engineering


Prof. Laefer’s work often stands at the cross-roads of technology creation and community values such as devising technical solutions for protecting architecturally significant buildings from sub-surface construction. As the density of her aerial remote sensing datasets continues to grow exponentially with time, Prof. Laefer and her Urban Modeling Group must help pioneer computationally efficient storage, querying, and visualization strategies that both harness distributed computing-based solutions and bridge the gap between data availability and its usability for the engineering community.

In her decade and a half as a faculty member in both the US and Europe, Prof. Laefer has served as the principal investigator for grants from a wide range of sponsors including the National Science Foundation, the US Federal Highway Administration, the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities, Science Foundation Ireland, and the European Research Council.

Prof. Laefer has authored over 160 peer-reviewed publications, been awarded 4 patents, and has supervised 15 doctoral and 20 Masters theses. Among many honors from IEEE, ISPRS, and other professional societies.
