Delighted to share our @GSDSglasgow contribution to this @BBCNews report on the #water footprint of #DataCenters. We worked closely with @BBC to model the water use thanks to their FoI data

I was on @BBCScotland this morning to discuss more about 👉🏻 https://t.co/QGk8iltLta

We asked ARC residents and users if they'd like to take part in a photography project to help us capture life in the ARC. We gave participants a single use film camera for a day, with the task to take photos of whatever they liked in the building.

Here are the results...

What do you notice in your neighbourhood — a street tree, a puddle, a bird call?🌳

#communiMap invites Glaswegians to log everyday observations and turn them into community knowledge and climate action.

Co-designed by UofG's @communiGALLANT + residents.

#AGITConference was a great success! Prof. @AnahidBasiri gave an insightful talk on Missing Data and how it impacts our everyday lives. A big round of applause to her.👏👏

[Johannes Scholz @Joe_GISc]

The last two days we had a fantastic new edition of #agit2025 conference at @Z_GIS1. We had a full house and two fantastic keynote speakers @DrGeoff2 and @AnahidBasiri! Thanks everyone for helping to make this reality and thanks to the scientific community f

Shout out to Joe Shingleton and @AnahidBasiri for winning Best Full Paper at #AGILE2025 for their paper "How close is 'close'? An analysis of the spatial characteristics of perceived proximity using Large Language Models".

Go, team, go! 🥳

[Geospatial Data Science Glasgow @GSDSglasgow]

🎉Big congrats to James Ackland for passing his viva! His research uses data-driven modelling to explore how political ideologies simplify complex issues into one-dimensional choices. We're excited to welcome his sharp, systems-level thinking to the team! 💡🧠

✨Joe Shingleton and @AnahidBasiri are finalists for Best Paper at #AGILE2025!✨

Their paper, "How close is 'close'? An analysis of the spatial characteristics of perceived proximity using Large Language Models", is up for the honour this Friday, 13 June.

Best of luck to you!

[Geospatial Data Science Glasgow @GSDSglasgow]

Our brilliant researcher Dominick Sutton’s paper “Exploring a Diagnostic Test for Missingness at Random”, co-authored with @AnahidBasiri and Ziqi Li, is now published in Mathematics! 🎉📄

Is it open source, so please feel free to have a look https://t.co/9i99id2pVr

[Geospatial Data Science Glasgow @GSDSglasgow]

One of our researchers has launched a survey working to identify how people interact with missing data on maps and how this influences their perception of missingness.
