Abstract
Developing effective visual analytics systems demands care in characterization of domain problems and integration of visualization techniques and computational models. Urban visual analytics has already achieved remarkable success in tackling urban problems and providing fundamental services for smart cities. To promote further academic research and assist the development of industrial urban analytics systems, we comprehensively review urban visual analytics studies from four perspectives. In particular, we identify 8 urban domains and 22 types of popular visualization, analyze 7 types of computational method, and categorize existing systems into 4 types based on their integration of visualization techniques and computational models. We conclude with potential research directions and opportunities.

Computational Visual Media is a peer-reviewed open access journal. It publishes original high-quality research papers and significant review articles on novel ideas, methods, and systems relevant to visual media.
Computational Visual Media publishes articles that focus on, but are not limited to, the following areas:
• Editing and composition of visual media
• Geometric computing for images and video
• Geometry modeling and processing
• Machine learning for visual media
• Physically based animation
• Realistic rendering
• Recognition and understanding of visual media
• Visual computing for robotics
• Visualization and visual analytics
Other interdisciplinary research into visual media that combines aspects of computer graphics, computer vision, image and video processing, geometric computing, and machine learning is also within the journal''s scope.
This is an open access journal, published quarterly by Tsinghua University Press and Springer. The open access fees (article-processing charges) are fully sponsored by Tsinghua University, China. Authors can publish in the journal without any additional charges.
