Welcome to the Website of the Laboratory for Smart City and Spatial Big Data Analytics!
The Lab aims to develop an area of excellence on Smart Cities with focuses on: (a) innovating and developing cutting-edge Smart City technologies, (b) transferring these technologies to industry, and (c) providing Smart City solutions to Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area, and the World.

Spatial data infrastructure is a key foundation for smart city development. Our laboratory has launched a spatial data infrastructure platform covering the whole Hong Kong area. Our platform initially integrated outdoor, indoor, above-ground, underground and spatiotemporal dynamic models.
Our research aim is to develop a lightweight seamless 3D spatial data acquisition system as well as a 3D spatial data post-processing software toolkit.
Remote sensing is the technique to detect information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object. We have conducted extensive research in remote sensing, with emphases on change detection and object extraction.
We innovate and utilize emerging analytics on various spatiotemporal big data (e.g. location-based social network data, GPS-associated document, WIFI data) for modelling, analysis and mining. Our team devotes to improving reliability of the analytics and applying the knowledge to real-world scenarios.
