In our latest GLaD Podcast, come listen to @rsfrankl, Dani Arribas-Bel `@[email protected]` and I take a peek into A Day In the Life of Darla Munroe (Director of Research Lincoln Institute of Land Policy)—we chat about life at an academic research institute, creativity in research, and finding balance! pca.st/o6kmkotx

Come do a PhD with me & the fantastic @paul_d_bates developing techniques to improve social vulnerability & flood hazard mapping in #LMICs in partnership with Climate Centre @GeogBristol! Deadline for applications: 18 March 2024 noc.ac.uk/gsnocs/project…

Hugely grateful to University of Bristol for the chance to contribute to a unique global civic mission, straddling a great city and its planetary civics. Looking forward to joining Evelyn Welch & team, working with Professor Palie Smart + Liang-Fong Wong + GED 🗺️, and joining @GeogBristol colleagues

Yet another fantastic GISRUK. Thanks to Roger Beecham and colleagues at University of Leeds for such a great conference #GISRUK2024 Looking forward to next year in Bristol chaired by ljw

Nice article led by Clementine Cottineau in current issue of Urban Studies: “The role of analytical models and their circulation in urban studies and policy”, open access, get it here journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00… fascinating history of how ideas emerge and evolve

so, an opinionated take: 'Urban Analysis and Spatial Science' will be available from CRC Press in early 2025 :) the digital version (still in draft) is at knaaptime.com/urban_analysis/ comments, criticism, and feedback welcome.

in tribute to the late Art Getis, a spatial analysis (and SDSU) legend: a look at two decades of agglomeration economies in U.S. metro areas via network analysis, local spatial statistics, & computational geometry. All open source :) sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Really enjoyed my time Schloss Dagstuhl this week, thinking about (and hacking on) new ideas in spatial causal inference. Thanks Martin Tomko @dinomirmt. now on bsky and YananXin for organizing, and am looking forward to all the new things that’ll follow!

V. happy to see our spatial interaction modelling chapter w/ Robin Lovelace @[email protected] & Adam Dennett live! 🙌 Thanks ljw, Alison Heppenstall & Spatially variable (Prof Rich Harris) 🌍🌎🌏 for putting this together. Great reviews on the book by @rsfrankl, Michael Batty & Luc Anselin e-elgar.com/shop/gbp/a-res…

Also this MRP comparator tool inglesp.github.io/apogee/ by Peter Inglesby is wonderful. Thank you

The GIS Research UK (GISRUK) 2025 Call for Abstracts is live! This year's theme is Process in Geographic Information Science, re-thinking the link between the patterns we see and what we represent on our computer screens. See you in Bristol April 23-25! gisruk.org/gisruk-2025

📍 Exciting news for fans of geographical analysis and also journal editing! The world's best little spatial methods journal (👋) is searching for a new editor. All details in link! geography.osu.edu/news/we-are-lo…

We were told that this is now published, but I can't find it on the Annual Reviews website. Email me if you want a pdf. School of Human Evolution and Social Change ASU Teotihuacan Lab

🔔New paper alert!🔔 *People make places urban* in Nature Cities w/ ljw #cities #urbanism #urbanization We address that deceptively simple question: What makes a place urban? (TL;DR - the answer is in the title!). A short thread on key arguments (1/10)

AI is now definitely changing how we live our (geography) lives! Join @rsfrankl, Dani Arribas-Bel `@[email protected]`, and me for another episode of the GLaD Podcast, where we discuss how Artificial Intelligence is emerging in our GLAD lives. open.spotify.com/episode/2AEkBB…
