Team Builds Open-Source Global City Boundary Dataset
paulnovosad · x · 2026-07-15
A reshared post reveals that while conducting global urban research, a team discovered that boundary datasets for 10,000+ global cities were practically non-existent. Consequently, they built their own dataset and open-sourced it for research.
The post emphasizes that this data "shouldn't have been missing in the first place," underscoring their contribution as a foundational, reusable research resource rather than just a product promo.
