Geospec Location, location, location – geographic information & sustainable development

Some examples….. Finding a location: Finding a route: Just looking:

Some more examples….. Sustainable cities: urban green space mapping Sustainable transport: electric vehicle performance

Sustainable Cities

Urban green space - benefits Environmental – biodiversity, microclimate Economic – travel, business retention Health - airborne pollution, exercise Social – communities, crime

Accessibility Standards Each person should have at least one accessible green space of: –2ha within 300m of their home; –20ha within 2km of their home; –100ha within 5km of their home; and –500ha within 10km of their home.

Sustainable Transport

Electric Cars Environmentally friendly - zero emissions Zero road tax Congestion charge exempt Free or discounted parking Low insurance group

Performance….. Performance Incline

Impedance….. Slope (degrees)Weighting Factor 01 1 to 22 3 to 44 5 to 68 7 to to to to to to 30512

Conclusion GIS provides location intelligence across sectors - data integration, analysis and display
