This repository contains the source files for processing the datasets, running the analysis, and producing the plots for the following publication:

Niklas H. Kitzmann, Pawel Romanczuk, Nico Wunderling and Jonathan F. Donges (2022). Detecting contagious spreading of urban innovations on the global city network. European Physical Journal Special Topics. DOI:10.1140/epjs/s11734-022-00470-4

Please refer to the readme.md file in the analysis directory for instructions on running the code. The used datasets can be found in this repository as well, in the top-level directory "data". The exception to this is the data on Bus Rapid Transit adoptions, which could not be reproduced here due to its Creative Commons BY-NC-ND 3.0 license. This data can, however, be freely downloaded from BRTdata.org.
