 A Note from the Director - - - Subhrajit Guhathakurta

 

 

I am delighted to present this year's second edition of our newsletter, which showcases the wide range of research being conducted by CSPAV researchers. Many of you have written to me after seeing our earlier newsletters. Please continue to be engaged and send your comments and queries as you have done in the past. Our work, as usual, spans many domains of spatial data analytics - from the spatial context of various social relationships

to the importance of streetscapes in inducing walking and from equity implications of on-demand transit to the analysis of freight transportation in the tri-state region. The articles also highlight our ongoing partnership with GT campus planning and the Georgia Department of Revenue. Besides the newsletters, you can also follow us on Twitter @c_spav and visit our website for more frequent updates.
