Wonder how redistricting might affect you? The 2023 @BCEReviews call for public comment closes today, and I'm so excited to share what my stellar colleagues @GeogBristol have worked on so diligently all July: (ljwolf.org/bce)! (1/🧵)
Reading Rhind is always a bit spooky, especially now. I wonder what other AI arguments we're unintentionally reprising because we've forgotten (or otherwise chosen to ignore) the onset of computerization?
AI is now definitely changing how we live our (geography) lives!
Join @rsfrankl, @darribas, and me for another episode of the GLaD Podcast, where we discuss how Artificial Intelligence is emerging in our GLAD lives.

We were told that this is now published, but I can't find it on the Annual Reviews website. Email me if you want a pdf. @ASUBeingHuman @asuteolab

🔔New paper alert!🔔
*People make places urban*
in @NatCities w/ @levijohnwolf
#cities #urbanism #urbanization
We address that deceptively simple question: What makes a place urban? (TL;DR - the answer is in the title!). A short thread on key arguments

The GIS Research UK (GISRUK) 2025 Call for Abstracts is live!
This year's theme is Process in Geographic Information Science, re-thinking the link between the patterns we see and what we represent on our computer screens.
See you in Bristol April 23-25!

Really enjoyed my time @dagstuhl this week, thinking about (and hacking on) new ideas in spatial causal inference. Thanks @dinomirMT and @Yanan_Xin for organizing, and am looking forward to all the new things that’ll follow!

in tribute to the late Art Getis, a spatial analysis (and SDSU) legend: a look at two decades of agglomeration economies in U.S. metro areas via network analysis, local spatial statistics, & computational geometry. All open source :)

so, an opinionated take: 'Urban Analysis and Spatial Science' will be available from CRC Press in early 2025 :)
the digital version (still in draft) is at knaaptime.com/urban_analysis…
comments, criticism, and feedback welcome.
