| Description | The main achievement of the research production of a demonstrator that successfully combines geospatial and attribute data from separate internet service providers and integrates these using geoprocessing algorithms to apply the spatial analytic technique known as dasymetric mapping. The application of this technique has previously been limited to desktop-based geoprocessing in a PC/workstation environment and to the best of the team's knowledge the leading edge data feed approach has not been combined with these algorithms to enable the technique to be applied via an online user interface to integrate data from different time periods. |
| Exploitation Route | There is potential for the demonstrator system to be taken for through the UK Data Service to overcome difficulties arising from changing census geographies. |
