Can Fires, Night Lights, and Mobile Phones reveal behavioral fingerprints useful for Development?
Abstract
Fires, lights at night and mobile phone activity have been separately used as proxy indicators of human activity with high potential for measuring human development. In this preliminary report, we develop some tools and methodologies to identify and visualize relations among remote sensing datasets containing fires and night lights information with mobile phone activity in Cote D'Ivoire from December 2011 to April 2012.
