Workshop: DATA-DRIVEN INSIGHTS ON URBAN WATER INFRASTRUCTURE

This workshop will present an analytical framework for data-driven insights on urban water infrastructure. Based on research developed at the Zofnass Program for Sustainable Infrastructure at the Harvard GSD, participants will be introduced to a geospatial simulation tool for urban water systems, the use of drones for mapping infrastructure, and comparative sustainability analytics. The second part of the workshop will be dedicated to brainstorm similar applications in NYC and other cities. Priority will be given to discuss urban water challenges concerning the participants, and potential sustainable urban solutions. The goal is to introduce a framework that enables informed decision-making for stakeholders, including city officials, policymakers, real estate developers, and the general public.
