Fellow of the Academy of Social Sciences, United Kingdom

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Law
  • Statistics
  • Social science

Paul A. Longley mainly investigates Information system, Data science, Geographic information system, World Wide Web and Field. His Information system research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cartography, Management science, Knowledge management, Urban geography and Operations research. His research investigates the connection between Management science and topics such as GIS and public health that intersect with problems in Enterprise GIS, Public policy and Distributed GIS.

As part of one scientific family, Paul A. Longley deals mainly with the area of Data science, narrowing it down to issues related to the Geospatial analysis, and often Spatial analysis, Grid and Map algebra. The various areas that Paul A. Longley examines in his Geographic information system study include Information science and Library science. His work carried out in the field of World Wide Web brings together such families of science as Topic model, Latent Dirichlet allocation, Government and Unsupervised algorithm.

His most cited work include:

  • Geographic Information Systems and Science (1694 citations)
  • Fractal Cities: A Geometry of Form and Function (786 citations)
  • Geographical information systems (566 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Paul A. Longley mostly deals with Data science, World Wide Web, Geodemographic segmentation, Regional science and Information system. His research integrates issues of Visualization, Spatial analysis, Geospatial analysis and Big data in his study of Data science. As part of his studies on Geodemographic segmentation, he frequently links adjacent subjects like Census.

Paul A. Longley combines subjects such as Management science and Geographic information system with his study of Information system.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Data science (16.57%)
  • World Wide Web (11.24%)
  • Geodemographic segmentation (9.76%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Data science (16.57%)
  • Social media (3.85%)
  • Big data (3.25%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Data science, Social media, Big data, Census and Ethnic group. The concepts of his Data science study are interwoven with issues in Geospatial analysis, GIS and public health, Spatial data infrastructure, Built environment and Geodemographic segmentation. He interconnects Data quality and Management science in the investigation of issues within GIS and public health.

His Social media study is concerned with the larger field of World Wide Web. His World Wide Web research integrates issues from Latent Dirichlet allocation and Profiling. His Urban geography study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Function and Information system.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Geographical information systems (566 citations)
  • The geography of Twitter topics in London (104 citations)
  • The geotemporal demographics of Twitter usage (97 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Law
  • Statistics
  • Social science

Paul A. Longley mostly deals with Data science, Social media, Cartography, Census and Regional science. His Data science research includes elements of Emerging technologies, Data-driven, Urban infrastructure, Digital Revolution and Urban management. Social media is a subfield of World Wide Web that Paul A. Longley explores.

Paul A. Longley works mostly in the field of World Wide Web, limiting it down to topics relating to Unsupervised algorithm and, in certain cases, Topic model, as a part of the same area of interest. His work is dedicated to discovering how Cartography, Geodemographic segmentation are connected with Categorical variable and other disciplines. His Information system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Data quality and Data transformation.
