Basic communications between different individuals or groups typically have identifiable patterns and trends, based on the motives and behaviors of those involved. In this talk, we will look at different types of communications patterns, generated by devices that we use everyday: mobile phones, email and social networking. Please join Curtis Garton, Product Manager at Oculus, as he presents an overview of Communications Patterns: Identifying and Recognizing Patterns in Everyday Communications"
Join us as we continue our ongoing series with the CrisisMappers Network. This session will be given by John Quinn at Makerere University in Uganda. Full description coming soon!
This presentation discusses methodological issues encountered during a recent Global Positioning System (GPS) based personal travel survey on everyday utility cycling around Newcastle upon Tyne. Participants (i.e., Utility Cyclists) carried the GPS device for one week (7 days) while filling self-administered questionnaire forms. Utility cycling is defined as any (bi) cycling which is not done primarily for fitness, recreation such as cycle touring, or sport such as cycle racing, but simply as a means of transport. This work is, in part, a response to existing calls, from literature, for further research to incorporate the investigation and discovery of cyclist’s perception and experiences (Skinner & Rose, 2007; Forsyth & Krizek, 2011); to support urban designers as well as cycling policy interventions and transportation engineers and thereby increase cycling uptake. The results of the survey are presented. Additionally, preliminary results of using GeoTime with ArcGIS technologies to map and visualized the collected data are discussed.
"The first step of any type of data analysis is source data. In this presentation we will look at different sources of location data, including case notes, ALPR data, CDR records and photos taken from an iPhone. In order to fully exploit these disparate data sets, we will aggregate them together to create a visual representation of suspect movement. Presenter: Curtis Garton is the Visual Analytics Product Manager with Oculus Info, with a focus on geo-temporal and network analysis. Curtis has over 10 years experience in data visualization and 3D animation. He currently works with crime analysts around the globe in adopting visual analysis techniques to improve their ability to understand and present complex data sets."
