The new Urban Data Platform, developed by the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) in close co-operation with DG Regional and Urban Policy, is now online: http://urban.jrc.ec.europa.eu
This tool allows the interactive discovery – via maps and graphs – of about 60 indicators at the level of cities, functional urban areas and metropolitan regions in Europe.
Many of the indicators are related to the State of European Cities Report 2016: http://ec.europa.eu/regional_policy/en/policy/themes/urban-development/cities-report
Furthermore, the platform features results of JRC’s modelling work on future trends of population, land use and economic development in urban areas.
