Abstract

The application of data analytics in urban governance is crucial in addressing municipal issues. However, there are limited sources to review and discuss research related to urban observatories, which is one of the monitoring systems implemented in an urban area. This study aims to review existing urban observatory systems around the world to understand the pattern of data analytic themes, the analysis involved and types of the data. A total of 30 urban observatories were used as secondary data as an inductive analysis of thematic content using NVIVO 12 Plus. Environmental, economic, social, physical, and global agenda are the five key data analytic themes. The finding of the study is that environmental and social data analytics were the most commonly used themes in the 30 UOs surveyed. Also, the UO system developers focused on GIS (Geographic Information System) data relating to the physical environment and land cover. While efforts are being made to improve spatial data, in advanced analysis, however, data modelling and prediction/forecasts are still lacking. In conclusion, examining existing urban observatory systems are critical to the Malaysia Urban Observatory's development. Later, MUO will assist Malaysia in tracking the trajectory of urban development and well-being of its citizens.

全球城市天文台系统数据分析主题综述:马来西亚城市天文台(MUO)的经验教训

数据分析在城市治理中的应用对于解决市政问题至关重要。但是，审查和讨论与城市观测站有关的研究的来源有限，城市观测站是在城市地区实施的监测系统之一。本研究旨在回顾世界各地现有的城市观测系统，以了解数据分析主题的模式、所涉及的分析和数据类型。共使用30个城市观测站作为辅助数据，使用NVIVO 12 Plus对主题内容进行归纳分析。环境、经济、社会、物理和全球议程是五个关键的数据分析主题。该研究发现，环境和社会数据分析是被调查的30家uo中最常用的主题。此外，UO系统开发人员将重点放在与物理环境和土地覆盖有关的GIS(地理信息系统)数据上。虽然正在努力改进空间数据，但是在高级分析方面，仍然缺乏数据建模和预测/预报。总之，审查现有的城市天文台系统对马来西亚城市天文台的发展至关重要。随后，该组织将协助马来西亚跟踪城市发展轨迹和公民福祉。

期刊介绍： Journal of Urban Management (JUM) is the Official Journal of Zhejiang University and the Chinese Association of Urban Management, an international, peer-reviewed open access journal covering planning, administering, regulating, and governing urban complexity. JUM has its two-fold aims set to integrate the studies across fields in urban planning and management, as well as to provide a more holistic perspective on problem solving. 1) Explore innovative management skills for taming thorny problems that arise with global urbanization 2) Provide a platform to deal with urban affairs whose solutions must be looked at from an interdisciplinary perspective.
