The production of Urban Areas zonings at national level is characterized by long delays between consecutive updates. As mobile phone data has recently shown promising results for automated land use classification, we investigate the possibility to reproduce the French Urban Area Zoning (ZAUER). We exploit a dataset of hourly mobile phone activity profiles at cell-tower level, discuss methodological challenges, and find Urban Centers to be most correctly classified. Our findings frame the possibilities and limits for using mobile phone data to automatically, and continuously produce urban zonings
