NOVA Cidade - Urban Analytics Lab, of NOVA IMS, has been an important partner of the municipality, by elaborating several analytical models that positively impact planning and decision making. (...) "The projects we have been creating seek, precisely, to use analytics to provide the necessary information to those who have to intervene in the city. This way, it becomes possible to understand which is the best intervention, in space and time, allowing us to reach a certain goal", explains Miguel de Castro Neto, coordinator of NOVA Cidade and dean of NOVA IMS.
