Rural Digital Economy Research Hub
Lead Research Organisation:
University of Aberdeen
Department Name: Geography and Environment
Abstract
There is considerable untapped economic potential in rural areas of the UK. In England alone this is estimated to be worth at least 340 million per year. Burgess (2008) gives as principal reasons for this that high levels of rural business aspiration do not find their way into practice, and that existing entrepreneurship does not fully reach its potential in wealth creation. He urges that Government recognise that key ways of realising this potential are to initiate new forms of information networks for the transfer of knowledge, the sharing of good practice, and engagement with wider markets, policy-making processes, and for the creation of larger 'masses' of expertise. By the creation of a Rural Digital Economy Hub at the University of Aberdeen we propose to take up this key challenge for policy and to employ digital technology to realise this untapped rural economic potential, through themes and projects targeted at key economic activities in the rural UK. Rural areas have specific characteristics that create particular problems for these types of activities: for example, small and often dispersed populations; narrow and uneven channels of information flow, including often relatively restricted access to digitally-based information; and rapid change in population structures and economic activity bases.Digital technology will play a major role in releasing untapped potential in the economies of rural areas in the UK. By using innovative flexible ways of 'digital working', rural businesses and communities can build on their social, economic and environmental capital to generate new wealth, employment and social opportunities. Working with communities, businesses and policy-makers on initiatives in tourism, healthcare, accessibility, conservation of natural resources, and enterprise and culture as our partners, the University of Aberdeen's Rural Digital Economy Research Hub will use our extensive expertise in information technology applications, rural economy and society, to initiate innovative projects in rural communities and businesses across the UK.We will, from the outset, incorporate and act on feedback from our partners to design and refine digital solutions to business needs. We will, with partners, evaluate our work to maximise benefits for rural economies and for the policy sectors affecting the well-being of the UK's rural areas.Rural areas of the UK can, through the user-led application of digital technology in carefully designed ways, be more economically, socially and environmentally sustainable: we will harness our expertise with rural partners to realise this ambition.

| Title | SIRA STREAMS: Axe Reproduction @ SSW |
| Description | From 11-23th August 2014, the collaboration of Scottish Sculpture Workshop artist Eden Jolly and master blacksmith Darrell Markewitz, with Dr. Gordon Noble, archeologist at University of Aberdeen, sought to recreate a ceremonial axe - as seen on the Rhynie Man standing stone - through smelting and forging locally sourced materials. The Rhynie Man stone is dated to roughly 700 AD, and shows a man carrying what looks to be a ceremonial axe, the type of which was used to sacrifice cattle - part of an early Pictish King's role as a religious as well as a secular leader. During the excavations carried out in 2013, a pendent depicting the axe was found, along with metal-working tongs. This find led to an initial bloomery smelt held in Rhynie last summer, and further dialogue between Scottish Scupture Workshop and the Rhynie investigations. On the 14th of August 2014 the SIRA STREAMS Team visited the Scottish Scupture Workshop to capture video as Darrell Markewitz worked to reproduce this iron age axe. Darrell worked the forge to reproduce a replica of the Rhynie Man axe depicted on the stone. The axe itself remains a subject of much debate in the archaeological community. |

| Title | Data Bundle for Models of argument for deliberative Dialogue in Complex Domains |
| Description | This data bundle contains all the data that were used in Toniolo's PhD Thesis, with title "Models of argument for deliberative Dialogue in Complex Domains". In this research, we defined and empirically evaluated a model of deliberation dialogue based upon argumentation schemes for agents with different objectives to decide what to do in collaboration. The three main folders correspond to the data used for analysis in Chapter 5 (Identifying effective plans through dialogue), Chapter 6a (Strategies driven by plan feasibility) and Chapter 6b (Strategies driven by conflict importance) respectively. Each folder contains files with data resulting from the experiments in csv format, and a file graphAnalysisChX.rtf that contains R scripts for generating the graphs for analysis as presented in the thesis. |

| Title | Dataset for "How can skin check reminders be personalized to patient conscientiousness" |
| Description | Anonymised data from this PATH 2015 workshop paper. This paper explores the potential of personalising health reminders to melanoma patients based on their personality (high vs low conscientiousness). We describe a study where we presented participants with a scenario with a fictional patient who has not performed a skin check for recurrent melanoma. The patient was described as either very conscientious, or very unconscientious. We asked participants to rate reminders inspired by Cialdini's 6 principles of persuasion for their suitability for the patient. Participants then chose their favourite reminder and an alternative reminder to send if that one failed. We found that conscientiousness had an effect on both the ratings of reminder types and the most preferred reminders selected by participants. |

| Title | FITS Test Results and Analysis |
| Description | The FITS visualisation tool has been trialled offline with transport operator data for the North-West Aberdeenshire and Morayshire area as well as a set of passenger trip demands. A simulated demand generator was used to produce a set of passenger demands to reflect potential daily health-related trip demands. The generation of the trips is based on annual outpatient appointment data from each of nine districts (electoral wards) to and from five hospitals in the North-West Aberdeenshire and Morayshire area. |

| Title | Map-Matching Algorithm for Rural Passenger Information Systems through Mobile Phones and Crowd Sourcing |
| Description | Map-matching (MM) algorithms integrate location data (i.e., latitude and longitude) obtained from positioning sensors (in this case, mobile GPS) with a digital geographic information system (GIS) road map. Any map-matching algorithm first identifies the road link on which a vehicle is traveling and then determines the vehicle's location on that road segment. In this new map matching algorithm, at a given point of time, a number of vehicle locations (latitude and longitude) are received from passengers traveling on a bus. In order to provide a precise vehicle location at a given point of time, a novel map-matching algorithm using fuzzy logic, which integrates multiple vehicle locations (obtained from passenger's smart phones) with a GIS road map, has been developed. The developed map-matching algorithm was tested using real-world data collected on four different bus routes in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, and also GPS data collected in and around Nottingham, United Kingdom. It was identified that the developed MM algorithm is efficient and capable of supporting the proposed passenger information system. |

| Results and Impact | As part of First Lego League activities at Manor Park Primary School (Aberdeen) 8 pupils aged 9-11 years and 3 teachers visited the dot.rural Digital Economy Hub. The 8 pupils met Jennifer Holden, Gemma Webster and JP Vargheese from the Hub and asked questions about helping older adults to use technology. The pupils had a tour of the Hub and the activity sparked off further questions and discussion. For most of the pupils it was the first time they had been inside a university and for all of them it was the first time they had been inside a 'research' orientated part of the university as opposed to the library.

| Results and Impact | This paper defines the concept of disruption in travel and transportation, specifically in the rural context. Resilience is introduced as a theoretical tool to model individual and community development in times of change and disruption. Various resilience characteristics that influence passengers during disruptions are identified. A conceptual model - which links passenger behaviour characteristics, identified from expert studies with community resilience characteristics - to identify possible pathways to enhancing passenger resilience is developed. The resilience characteristics presented in the model are formulated and evaluated from existing resilience literature, 60 interviews with passengers and rural dwellers in Scottish borders and rural Lancashire, and consultation and brainstorming discussion within a research group. The developed model can provide a better understanding of resilience in the context of transportation disruption and uncertainty. It can also identify new technology options to lessen disruption impacts; decrease recovery times; and provide transport service planning during disruption. None known to date |

| Results and Impact | Seminar organised as part of the eScience Institute mini-theme on Provenance and Linked Open Data - delivered by Paul Groth (U Amsterdam). Abstract: Given the increased interest in provenance in the Semantic Web area and in the Web community at large, the W3C established the Provenance Incubator Group as part of the W3C Incubator Activity with a charter to provide a state-of-the art understanding and develop a roadmap in the area of provenance and possible recommendations for standardization efforts. This seminar summarizes the findings of the group. Provenance is a crucial aspect of understanding, trusting, reusing, and reproducing data. In particular, in open environments such as the web,provenance becomes critical. As the Semantic Web becomes a reality with the introduction of massive amounts of Linked Data, it becomes critical that machines as well as humans. Given this context, the W3C chartered an incubator group whose goal was to provide a state-of-the art understanding and develop a roadmap in area of provenance for the Web and in particular the Semantic Web. The Provenance Incubator Group finished its work just recently in December 2010. In this talk, I present the outcomes the Incubator group including a framework for thinking about provenance research, use cases and requirements, and the roadmap. Additionally, I will discuss the group's proposed charter for a W3C working group to standardize an interchange language for provenance and what such a standard would enable from a research perspective. This was an information sharing session at the beginning of a series of events - no obvious impacts. |

| Results and Impact | At the established Einstein's Garden science programming strand at the Green Man Festival (20,000 capacity, 4 day event, Brecon Beacons) the grant had a marquee containing three public engagement activities. Over the 4 days the team (3 researchers, 1 assistant) interacted with over 1200 people of all ages around issues of social media data use, re-use, trust and privacy. The three activities allowed participants to fish for twitter data to see how academic researchers investigate diverse topics such as travel disruption at major sporting events, UK-EU relations and the Scottish Independence Referendum. At the Social Media Spying Pool people discovered how national security agencies used fake social media accounts to investigate people. They could add to the Treasure Chest of gold coins search terms that they would use on social media sites and tell the story of the Green Man Festival 2014. Too early to tell. |
