Urban space is an important part of people's life, and its spatial quality is essential to people's activities and behaviors. The emerging new data and new technologies improve traditional research methods in urban space significantly. This paper reviews, analyzes and summarizes new data and new technologies that have emerged in recent years, including build environment data, social media data, trajectory data, deep learning, virtual reality, eye tracking, and physiological sensor. This paper also analyzes the possibility of more precise analysis and more intuitive presentation of these new data and new technologies in urban spatial research methods. Finally, we propose a framework to response the possible application of these new data and new technologies in the process of urbanization.
