Urban mobility data analysis – King's Geocomputation
https://kingsgeocomputation.org/2016/11/11/urban-mobility-data-analysis
Data analytics and simulation for environment and society. Urban mobility data analysis. Introducing a new member of King’s Geocomputation – Dr Chen Zhong. Chen joined King’s College London in September 2016 and her work on urban mobility directly contributes to the Geocomputation Research Domain. Here she provides a brief intro to her work. Space shapes transport as much as transport shapes space, which is a salient example of the reciprocity of transport and its geography. About Urban Mobility data.

Direction not Destination: US-IALE 2009: CHANS Workshop
http://landscapemodelling.blogspot.com/2009/05/us-iale-2009-chans-workshop.html
Sunday, 10 May 2009. US-IALE 2009: CHANS Workshop. Coupled Human and Natural Systems (CHANS) research is all about relationships – that seemed to be one of the main conclusions of the Challenges and Opportunities in Research on Complexity of Coupled Human and Natural Systems. Workshop at the US-IALE meeting in Snowbird, UT. The processes of identifying relationships between system elements and fostering them between researchers are key to realizing successful CHANS research. The workshop. One participant...

Direction not Destination: AAG 2013
http://landscapemodelling.blogspot.com/2013/04/aag-2013.html
Thursday, 18 April 2013. Last week I was in Los Angeles for my first ever Association of American Geographers Annual Meeting. I think I hadn't been before because the US-IALE annual meeting. Is around the same time of year and attending that has made more sense in the last few years given my work on forest modelling in Michigan. As I'd heard previously, the meeting was huge - although not quite as crazy as it could have been. It's hard to concentrate on 20-minute paper sessions continuously for five days...

Direction not Destination: Modelling Spatial Patterns of School Choice
http://landscapemodelling.blogspot.com/2012/02/modelling-spatial-patterns-of-school_2.html
Thursday, 2 February 2012. Modelling Spatial Patterns of School Choice. A couple of weeks ago I visited King's Department of Education. To give a seminar I entitled Agent-based simulation for distance-based school allocation policy analysis. Here in King's Geography Department. In their recent research. Using data from several LEAs, Chris and Tim showed empirically. I developed an initial 'model' as a proof of concept and which you can try out yourself. In the seminar with the Department of Education guy...

Direction not Destination: Agent-based in Auckland
http://landscapemodelling.blogspot.com/2013/05/agent-based-in-auckland.html
Monday, 27 May 2013. Today is my first day back in the UK after my trip to the AAG. And University of Auckland. The end of May is perilously close so if I'm to keep my New Year's resolution of one blog per month I'd better crack on with this now (as this week my time will be taken by attending and preparing for a workshop on Agency in Complex Information Systems at Imperial College. And the International Geographical Union meeting in Leeds. The main aim of visiting Assoc. Profs. David O'Sullivan. In part...

Direction not Destination: Lecturer in Physical and Quantitative Geography
http://landscapemodelling.blogspot.com/2013/09/lecturer-in-physical-and-quantitative.html
Sunday, 29 September 2013. Lecturer in Physical and Quantitative Geography. Things got a bit crazy this month as I made the transition from my Leverhulme Fellowship to a permanent position at King's as Lecturer in Physical and Quantitative Geography. I'm now Programme Director on the MSc in Environmental Monitoring, Modelling and Management. Which I completed 10 years ago this month! Seminar series was given over to several short presentations by members of staff. The slides from mine is below.

Direction not Destination: Recursion in society and simulation
http://landscapemodelling.blogspot.com/2013/03/recursion-in-society-and-simulation.html
Sunday, 17 March 2013. Recursion in society and simulation. This week I visited one of my former PhD advisors, Prof John Wainwright. I searched through this blog to see where I'd mentioned the conference and manuscript before, but to my surprise, before this post. In our discussion of what we can learn through using ABM, John highlighted the work of Kurt Godel and his incompleteness theorems. The general concept of recursion. And images within images:. Computer programmers of take advantage of recursion ...

GeoComputation – The Next 20 Years – King's Geocomputation
https://kingsgeocomputation.org/2016/05/30/geocomputation-the-next-20-years
Data analytics and simulation for environment and society. GeoComputation The Next 20 Years. Last December we held a workshop. At King’s on the Future of Geocomputation. Now we’re looking forward to participating in another day of Geocomputation discussion, this time at the Royal Geographical Society Annual Meeting 2016. In London on 31st August. Ed Manley, Nick Malleson, Alison Heppenstall and Andrew Evans are convening two presentation sessions and a panel discussion at the RGS conference, entitled.
