Poster of Professional Geospatial Workshop - Application of 3D Pedestrian Network

Professional Geospatial Workshop

"Application of 3D Pedestrian Network"

Event Code: E250125

Details

Objective

As a highly populated metropolis, Hong Kong requires a comprehensive 3D Pedestrian Network (3DPN) to aid its spatial planning and analysis. Since 2022, the Lands Department has made the dataset available to the public via the Common Spatial Data Infrastructure Portal (CSDI). A series of workshops related to the theme will be held in the coming months.

The first workshop will illustrate how to generate and configure a customised network dataset for Hong Kong using the dataset in the CSDI portal.

In the second workshop, we will illustrate how this customised network dataset can be employed to conduct basic spatial and network analyses.

Intended Audience

Parties and individuals interested in spatial data

Introduction of Guest Lecturer


Mr Jeffrey CHANG

Mr Chang research focuses on Urban Climate Modeling and Resilience, particularly on urban heat and extreme weather phenomena at local communities. His research applies advanced regional climate models, geographic information system (GIS), machine learning and citizen science to investigate interactions between urban meteorology and air pollution trends.


Mr Benjamin Ng

Mr Ng is a System Officer in the Science Unit, Lingnan University. He holds an MPhil in Health Geography and a BSocSc in Geography & Urban Governance from The University of Hong Kong. He is an experienced researcher who applies GIS to explore interdisciplinary issues intersecting health and urban planning.
