Join the Array of Things project leader, Charlie Catlett, and Chicago’s Chief Information Officer, Danielle DuMerer, as they talk about the founding of the project and what they hope to achieve in the future. Learn what the Array of Things is, what information it collects, and how it will inform the future of our city.
