Hi folks, A humanitarian-adjacent mapping job in Oxford has just come up that I thought people here might be interested in.
It’s for a Geospatial Data Scientist post in the Oxford Martin Programme on Informal Cities. Quick description: "We will select a sample of diverse cities (one from India, one from Africa and one from Latin America) and will investigate the types of data available, their timeliness, comprehensiveness and depth for each city. With a focus on informal systems, we will collect and harmonize existing data sources, including administrative data, regional surveys, geospatial data, satellite imagery and mobile data. We will draw on expertise in anthropology, geography, mathematics and epidemiology to find new ways to study informal neighbourhoods, economies, healthcare and transport in cities." It’d be great to have an OSM enthusiast in the post who could bring OSM/HOT’s many years of relevance to this. You’ll be working with Dr Andy Hong who’s keen on OSM (and who I’ve been working with on another mapping project).
