The sheer complexity of many public health problems – from air pollution to access to care - makes them incredibly difficult to solve. But Big Data and AI are increasingly being applied to these tricky issues. By providing real time insights into the factors affecting health and wellbeing, researchers and policymakers can better understand these issues – and come up with more effective solutions. In this session, researchers will demo a state-of-the-art Big Data webtool that shows:

• Real time insights into societal challenges facing urban populations

• Key factors that impact health and wellbeing

• How these insights can inform more sophisticated policies
