[PhD Thesis] Data for Design

Have a look at Saba Golchehr’s Ph.D. thesis at the Royal College of Art. “Data for design: Adopting data-driven approaches for long term citizen participation and social sustainability in design for the public realm” http://researchonline.rca.ac.uk/id/eprint/4060

“The world is flooded with more information than ever before. Ubiquitous digital technologies have enabled direct access to large amounts of empirical data to inform a wide range of topics and investigations. This thesis set out to explore how these novel data technologies offer new opportunities to designers to greatly increase their knowledge of the built environment and how people inhabit it, to inform design in the public realm.”
