This paper was part of "Advancing the Spatially Enable Smart Campus" (2013). The Center for Spatial Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara organized and hosted a specialist meeting about the smart campus. The meeting brought together academic and industry representatives with interest in conceiving, designing, and building a smart campus. It combined “thinking big” (asking what will make campuses smarter in the future) with “acting small” (focusing on specific organizational and technological measures and their evaluation).
