Abstract

The last decade has seen an explosion of ‘Big Data’ sources about society which have opened up new avenues of research for social scientists. In new research, Li Yin looks at how Google Street View can be used to make more accurate pedestrian counts in urban areas compared to more traditional methods. She writes that this information can in turn be used by policymakers to inform their decision-making about building healthier communities.
