Notes on Solutions Project Meeting with Sarah Gawthorpe

Andy Turner

SOLUTIONS is very interesting. Collaboration with Sarah Gawthorpe and Gordon Mitchell on this should be mutually beneficial. The MEDALUS III/MedAction work needs a breath of life and the technology could be used in SOLUTIONS. Hopefully this Web Page will encourage further collaboration.

Background

SOLUTIONS is a research project that focuses on spatial policy, in terms of design, transport systems and built form, in outer city areas of the UK that are experiencing or are likely to experience growth pressures in the future.

This four-year project (April 2004 to March 2008) investigates how towns and cities can be planned so that they are socially inclusive, environmentally sustainable and economically efficient.

Gordon asked if I knew how to go about disaggregative spatial interpolation. I pointed Gordon to:
Openshaw S., Turner A.G.D. (2001) 'Dissagregative Spatial Interpolation.' Presented at the GISRUK conference, Wales, April.

The Leeds Assessment WPs as specified in the case for support.doc
