Abstract

An online textbook, written and created by the School of Cities at the University of Toronto. It is a combination of learning materials on data analytics, data visualization, and narrative techniques to make complex urban trends understandable and engaging for specific audiences, such as policymakers, funders, or community members. There are three core modules, each composed of several chapters and hands-on tutorials. Urban data storytelling: Craft compelling narratives about cities, in order to communicate research and key insights, inform policy-making, build public will, or advocate for change. Urban data analysis: Find, process, and analyze data via Python, spreadsheet software, and GIS aimed at deriving key findings and answering research questions. Urban data visualization: Learn a variety of strategies, methods, and practical tips for effective visual communication of urban data via a range of maps and charts.
