| Abstract |
Social sensing belongs to an interdisciplinary research field formed in the background of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and big data development. This can be attributed to the continuous improvements in data acquisition, processing and analysis capacity for urban and social economy studies. It has been recognized that social sensing holds potential benefits across a number of industry sectors. This chapter analyzes the influences of social sensing on Planning Support System (PSS) and decision making with specific applications in supporting data, technology, function and application aspects. A case study is provided which focuses on the renovation planning in Changxindian old town, Beijing. The case study proves that social sensing has positive effects in addressing some of the disadvantages of PSSs and enabling such systems to play a greater role in planning practice. Based on analysis, this chapter puts forward the proposition that social sensing should be adopted as a critical component of PSS for urban planning in a smart city. |
