Abstract
How does a city perform during a special event? How can we
inform local authorities and urban dwellers of public happenings?
Until today it has been difficult to monitor urban dynamics in real
time. Traditional methods, like head counts, surveys, and aerial
inspection, are costly and limited. In this paper we present our
twofold approach to the processing and visualization of real time
information gathered from the telecommunication infrastructures
that percolate modern cities.
