What role does social media play in city design and development?  Technological changes have brought forth new ways for people to interact with place over the past few years as social media has increasingly played a greater role in our daily lives.  Studio-X NYC and the Spatial Information Design Lab are bringing experts together for a panel conversation about the potential of social media in urban research.  The panelists will include a variety of players in social media and will discuss social media data and how it could help decode our urban areas.
