Travel Concentration: The effects of attractor-bound movement on workplace activity
In this seminar, Petros Koutsolampros introduces and traces the development of a new visibility metric called Travel Concentration, that allows for measuring the potential effects of workplace attractors on movement and interaction. He discusses the analysis of 41 offices in the UK using Travel Concentration alongside known Visibility Graph Analysis metrics to understand the impact of spatial configuration on human activity.
Biography
Petros Koutsolampros is a PhD researcher in the Space Syntax Laboratory, focusing on the effects of spatial configuration on movement and interaction in workplaces. He is an architect by training but has since diverged towards spatial analysis and computation.
Petros has experience teaching building and urban analytic techniques, agent-based modelling and mixed-reality in various languages and frameworks. He was previously a KTP Associate with Spacelab and UCL and currently works at Space Syntax Ltd. on the development of novel spatial analytic methods. He is also the primary maintainer of the open-source spatial analysis software depthmapX, and its accompanying R package, rdepthmap.
