This school will focus on emerging and heterogeneous spatial data sources. It aims to offer its participants:

• an overview of how these data can be used to drive research on territorial dynamics;
• an understanding of contemporary expertise (methods and tools) required to process and model with these data.

The week will be organised as follows:

• conferences in the morning, focused on the following topics: smart cities, mobility and transport, geoscience and environmental issues, spatial networks, political and societal dimensions of big data.

Keynote speakers:

• Marc BARTHELEMY, Institute for Theoretical Physics (IPhT), France
• Marta C. GONZALEZ, University of California, Berkeley, United States
• Catherine MORENCY, Polytechnique Montréal,Canada
• Remko UIJLENHOET, Wageningen University, Netherlands
• Taylor SHELTON, Mississippi State University, United States
• Matthew ZOOK, University of Kentucky, United States

Each afternoon a R-tutorial on methods and libraries useful to perform successive tasks of an empirical research/data science project: data collection, data wrangling, spatial analysis, statistical modelling, geovisualization.
