AAG 2015

Hi friends! If anyone will be attending AAG 2015, please consider checking out Andrew Crooks and my work on crowdsourced data and agent-based modelling! Andrew will be talking as part of a panel called "Geosimulation and Big Data: A Marriage made in Heaven or Hell?" about some of the work we've done together on ABM and big data.


The talk will include videos highlighting my thesis work, which focused on how social media and mobile phones can influence the spread of crisis-related information through a community, prompting higher-level trends. Check out the video below to see a simulation of the Colorado Springs community reacting to the wildfire of 2012!


Have fun in Chicago!
