BIG DATA IN THE BIG APPLE

Tucked away in City Hall, a small team of data analyts has been unleashing a data revolution in New York City. Established under Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the Mayor’s Office of Data Analytics (MODA) combines and interrogates data from numerous different city sources to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of government operations and services. Big Data in the Big Apple provides a detailed account of the MODA model, its methods and achievements. It explains how MODA has helped to target the city’s resources at areas of greatest need, encourage collaboration between different departments and agencies, predict and prevent problems from occurring, and support economic development. The report argues that London should establish its own Mayor’s Office of Data Analytics to bring the same benefits to the British capital. Identifying the core principles and lessons from the experience of New York City, it outlines how the MODA model could be adapted to address the specific challenges facing London. Overall, Big Data in the Big Apple highlights how the methods established in New York represent one of the most powerful and effective models devised to date for harnessing data to improve city living.
