Do you know what this camera is doing? A panel discussion on the need for transparency on the use of digital technology in the public realm.

Digital technology is embedded into how our cities work. All around us, sensors are collecting data about the movement of people, objects and vehicles, and the environment. But how can people understand how that data is used to manage our shared spaces? This panel will discuss the importance of being transparent and engaging with communities about the use of technologies in the public realm, and the intersection with protecting digital rights and privacy. Attendees will hear about efforts to engage communities on the use of public realm technologies, and share learnings from municipalities that have tested ways to do so.
