Had the most wonderful time working on all things cycle networks and superblocks related with the fabulous people at NERDS, ITU. Very excited to share the outputs of our collaboration in the near future!

@David_AlvCas @GeospatialCDT The talk by @_Chris_Larkin on his PhD work to develop an open-source approach to mapping LTNs was well-received, with some rich disucssions and suggestions for improvement. Here's an example of his outputs for Zurich if you'd like to explore! froguin99.github.io/Zurich/ 3/n
Excited to be at @ETH for the 8th Cycling Research Board Annual Meeting. Looking forward to hearing from world-leading cycle researchers (and giving a talk myself, although world-leading qualities may or may not be present) #CRBAM2024

Thanks to everyone who came along to my #gisruk2024 talk yesterday 😊 had some great discussions and feedback afterwards 👍 You can find more info on my GitHub page about the project and play around with some examples: 🧑💻 github.com/Froguin99/LTN-… 🗺️ froguin99.github.io/newcastleLTNex…
Kicking off GISRUK 2024 at Leeds! Excited for the rest of the week up coming. I'll be presenting my work on #LTNs in the first session on Greener Neighbourhoods later today #gisruk2024
The notebook uses #pythonprogramming and #OpenStreetMap data to identify neighbourhoods and explore the impact of modal filters on the walking, cycling, and car networks in them. Can be run anywhere in the world! Cutting-edge skills for real world problems for our graduates! 2/2
I'm really lucky to work with such talented students in our @GeospatialCDT and share their knowledge with @GeospatialNCL undergraduates. @_Chris_Larkin has developed this amazing practical for our Stage 3 students using open data and #opensource tools. 1/2 colab.research.google.com/drive/1SE4psIt…
Think I might have reached a career peak #GISDay2023
There are still a large number of barriers (i.e. on almost every crossing over the A1) that discriminate against anyone with a disability, or riding a cargo bike. All cycle infrastructure should be designed inclusively. My PhD student @_Chris_Larkin mapped barriers in his MRes.

That's a wrap, great event brilliantly organised by our Cohort 3 students, Chris, Phil & Rachel. In just 9 days we start with Cohort 5!
Kicking off day 1 of our Annual Assembly with a review of student and CDT activities over the past 12 months.
Moving house in style over this past weekend (all be it quite slowly!) Segregated bike path along Heaton Road making the whole experience far less stressful, particularly when towing dubiously wobbly loads 😶🌫️ #utilitycycling #highyineffcientpacking #heaton
#ICYMI We asked PhD students at @GeospatialCDT to use our #opensource tooling #b6, in their #Challenge Week. Hear how they used #b6 to explore #amenity gaps in #Liverpool for the challenge around the #15-minutecity concept in this guest blog buff.ly/3NESt8I
It was great working with @diagonalworks during this year's @GeospatialCDT 's Challenge Week! They've been kind enough to ask us to reflect on our (cc @_Chris_Larkin @RSanderson96 @SophieJMann @ChristelowSam) experience in this blog 👇👇👇 diagonal.works/post/cdt-guest…
It has been great to see how @GeospatialCDT teams' creative analysis, methodology and thinking around urban environments translated into insight. And to see how our #opensource tooling #b6 can be utilised.
Great first presentation at #GISRUK2023 @_Chris_Larkin! Nice to hear the ideas from the GISRUK massive about potential improvements and new datasets. I'm sure you'll be back in future years to share new resuls and methods too. Hope the @activetraveleng hook-up comes good too.

Pleasure to present my current (and future plans for) PhD research at #GISRUK2023 for @GeospatialCDT Thanks to all those who gave really interesting comments and questions!
