Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to explore urban visibilities and invisibilities through the use of ambient approaches and inquires in smart cities and regions. As such, this chapter seeks to further operationalize elements of ambient InVisibilities advanced in this book, incorporating livability and well-being and challenges and opportunities associated with data. The research literature for well-being and livability in relation to urban data visibilities and invisibilities is explored in this chapter in the context of smart and responsive cities. Using an exploratory case study approach, combined with an explanatory correlational design, selected elements of urban life in smart cities are is investigated. This chapter makes a contribution to 1) the research literature for well-being and livability and other emergent complexities associated with data in the context of smart cities and 2) the evolving of theory through formulation of a conceptual framework for augmented awareness for ambient Invisibilities in smart cities.Keywords
