Abstract Big data are generated and employed for many ends, including governing societies, managing organizations, leveraging profit, and regulating places (Kitchin, 2014:165). In the last few decades, cities have embraced ICT as a principal component of their development strategies. The latest incarnation of such an ICT-led vision of urban development is the notion of smart cities, which conceives of places being increasingly composed of and being monitored by pervasive computing and its economy and governance is driven by knowledge, innovation and entrepreneurship, attained/accomplished by smart people in smart ways (ibid.: 123). In this backdrop, this chapter seeks to provide a synoptic, conceptual, and critical analysis of the role of big data in the rise of smart city. It provides a descriptive account of the potentials and opportunities that big data offers in urban planning and city development. In doing so, the chapter discusses on the enabling technologies adopted by the national, municipal, and local governments in the smart city. In a nutshell, the chapter highlights the role of big data in promoting urban governance. © 2018, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
