Research Interests

My research addresses questions in urban, transportation, health, and economic geography through the application of GIS methods. I focus mainly on the geographical and temporal characteristics of people's daily activities, and the impact of recent social, economic and political changes on their everyday lives as manifested through changes in the geographies of their daily activities. I am also interested in the development of new analytical methods for geographical research - especially GIS-based 3D geovisualization and geocomputation.

My studies often rely on the primary data I collected through activity diary surveys and in-depth interviews. Part of my current research attempts to integrate GIS and qualitative methods; while my substantive concerns have expanded to include other topics, such as the impact of information and communication technologies (ICT) on people's everyday lives and geographies of health. My research interests include:

• geographic analysis of accessibility - spatial mobility and accessibility in space-time, access to jobs and urban opportunities, the spatial mismatch between jobs and residence; 
• geographies of health - access to healthcare, spatial disparities in health outcomes, the effect of geographic context on health outcomes, relationships between environment and health;  issues of geoprivacy and its protection through geographic masking;
• information and communication technologies (ICT) - the impact of Internet use and mobile communications on people's activity-travel patterns; interactions among ICT use, social networks, and gender division of domestic labor;
• geographies of crime and drug use/abuse;
• research method - 3D geovisualization; quantitative methods (geocomputation, spatial data analysis, structural equation models, hierarchical and multilevel models); qualitative methods (qualitative GIS, computer-aided qualitative data analysis, oral history, narrative analysis, visual narratives); mixed-method approaches; activity diary surveys; 
• 3D GIS - 3D GIS data models for multi-story structures; analysis of the space-time trajectories of moving objects through visualization and data mining methods; real-time positioning technologies;
• critical GIS - knowledge, representation, power and geospatial technologies (GIS, GPS, remote sensing); the role of GIS in gender studies and feminist research;
• geographies of gender, race and religion; 
• hybrid geographies - crossing the boundary between critical social theory and GIS/spatial analytical methods.

My research interests are quite diverse, but several overarching dimensions can be identified: (a) an emphasis on people’s everyday experiences; (b) a focus on individual differences across multiple axes (e.g. gender, race and religion); (c) a recognition of the need to develop new methods for representing the complexities of human behavior and the urban environment; and (d) a concern for the social and policy implications of various issues.
