Our diverse cohort of students is conducting research into smart cities, infrastructure resilience, spatial mobility, energy systems, sustainable spatial planning and social inclusion. 

 

Our PhD students will enter UK industry as geospatial scientists, engineers and practitioners. They will have the necessary computational and mathematical skills to maximise the Big Data, Cloud Computing, AI and IoT technologies.

 

CDT technical training and research is based around five themes;

  • Spatial Data Capture & Interpretation
  • Spatial Statistics & Mathematical Methods
  • Big Data Spatial Analytics
  • Spatial analysis & Modelling
  • Visualisation & Decision Support
