This book presents a unique and a new resource for corporates, policymakers, academics, researchers, and graduate students in the quest for determining the role of intelligent tools in sustainable development. It approaches sustainable development by figuring variables for measurement (data types) and by investigating emerging intelligent tools to be used for harnessing, analysing, and presenting a track mechanism for progress made in each sustainable development goal. It presents a conceptual framework of artificial intelligence as an agent for global collaboration and progress towards the achievement of sustainable development goals.

Conceptualizes data types for sustainable development goals Identifies data types for sustainable development goals and emerging tools Discusses and presents artificial intelligence as a tool for data harnessing and optimization
