In the lead-up to the UN conference Habitat III, the open call Visualizing Cities requested submissions of the best city visualizations conceived by designers, researchers and practitioners around the world. The entries were carefully reviewed by an international program committee of experts from urban studies, visualization research and media outlets. The selected and winning entries were presented at the event and exhibition space Habitat X Change during Habitat III in Quito, Ecuador.
Big Time Bcn, Open Papers and Geographies of Innovation were shortlisted for the Cityvis Award and were shown in Quito Habitat III space along with the Historic Charter of Barcelona, the Digital Divide and Bcn Dynamics.
