I’m not sure I can ever get bored of cityscapes at night… but Hamburg is rapidly becoming a favourite. Looking forward to presenting @GeoDSGlasgow work (with Dominick Sutton) at GeoSocial 2023 tomorrow, as part of ACM SIGSPATIAL

This is Guy Solomon and me presenting at ACM SIGSPATIAL the joint work of us, Merve Polat Kayali and Xinyi Yuan of @GeoDSGlasgow at University of Glasgow

Awesome keynote from Prof. Carlo Ratti of Senseable City Lab at ACM SIGSPATIAL. So much inspiring research (and some particularly engaging visualisations).

👇Reminder of CfP for Leeds GISRUK 2024 is out! 👋 There is also a **new** GISRUK & OSGeo:UK Award for submissions that contribute open data/code products. You just tick ✅ on submission to be considered. Details: 2024.gisruk.org/osgeo/. Further updates coming soon!

It was great to speak at Rumsey Map Center today! And really excited for what the next few days have in store

2/n First up is Dominick Sutton Dominick Sutton, who researches Missing Data. This is a serious problem for all #data users, including those building #AI models. He is looking at using #spatial (location) data to better fill in the data gaps. UofG PGRs

Great to attend #AIUK and see how busy our University of Glasgow stand is 😍! Great to meet and work with such a fantastic team presenting University of Glasgow Centre for Data Science & AI 🚀🚀🚀🚀 Great event so far, Thank you The Alan Turing Institute for your hard work!

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

4/n Next: Guy Solomon, a Post-Doctoral Researcher of cities and city systems, discusses minority groups in urban environments, and why ‘majority rules’ is not always the case. His current work focuses on #AccessibleTransport #UrbanMobility and #UrbanModelling
