  • Notes

    • There was no provisional agenda for this meeting which was arranged by Mark.
    • Mark introduced the meeting while Belinda was held up in another meeting with Phil Rees.
      • The main reason for the meeting was to introduce René to the work on-going in MoSeS and for her to outline her plans.
      • Andy gave overview of the Population Initialisation process and the datasets we are attempting to create.
      • What housing variables are in/can be derived from the HSAR and ISAR?
        • Tenure
        • Overcrowding
      • It might be that for some applications (e.g. housing) some re-optimisation (Population Re-Initialisation) might be desirable:
        • Tenure, for example, is not used as a constraining variable.
      • Unitary Development Plan (UDP) for Leeds and other UK regions are not collected into a single national database?
      • Having talked to Leeds City Council (LCC), DS and MB think that plans have changed considerably from the UDP, but that little data or documentation is available.
      • It is difficult to get information about how much property is being built and is planned for small areas on a UK scale?
      • DS looking at the fit of tenure (numbers in owned, social rented, private rented or other) in the Iterative Proportional Sampling (IPS) data generated by Mark.
      • Pupil Level Annual School Census (PLASC)
        • We have the data for Leeds for 2001-2006.
        • Supplier: Education Leeds.
        • Contact: Kirk Harland
        • Kirk cleaned the data and Education Leeds provided a form on request to extend its licence for use in MoSeS.
        • We are unlikely to get any more data.
        • Are PLASC data collected nationally? - Do they have the same data or better in Scotland etc...
      • Belinda gave an overview of the Dynamic Modelling
      • Policy Impact
        • Stuart Hodkinson
        • René thesis
