Congratulations Tracey,

I did not realize you are interested in
   - *How are digital data generated and processed about cities and their
   citizens?* with some crossover on
   - *How are discourses and practices of city governance translated into
   code? *

Very worth while inquiries.

Subject: [CCA-list] Announcement: Moving to Ireland!

Greetings all!

Just a short note to let you all know that I am moving to Ireland for the
next 5 years. Below is part of the full announcement which you can read
here - http://datalibre.ca/2013/07/22/moving-to-ireland/.  I will continue
to carefully watch your fantastic lists and of course will continue my work
on the committees below!   I have really enjoyed working with you all and
hope you will visit or call if in Dublin.

************************

I will be leaving the Geomatics and Cartographic Research
Centre<https://gcrc.carleton.ca/confluence/display/GCRCWEB/Overview>(GCRC)
in Ottawa for a postdoctoral research position at the National Institute
for Regional and Spatial Analysis <http://www.nuim.ie/nirsa/> (NIRSA) in
Maynooth Ireland

I leave the GCRC<https://gcrc.carleton.ca/confluence/display/GCRCWEB/Overview>
 on
Aug. 23rd, my academic home of 11 years, at Carleton University in Ottawa
under the directorship of *D. R. Fraser
Taylor*<https://gcrc.carleton.ca/confluence/display/GCRCWEB/About+GCRC>
to
work with *Rob Kitchin*<http://www.nuim.ie/nirsa/people/admin/kitchin.shtml> on
the *Programmable City
Project*<http://cordis.europa.eu/fetch?CALLER=EN_NEWS&ACTION=D&RCN=35787>
  at *NIRSA* <http://www.nuim.ie/nirsa/>, National University of Ireland at
Maynooth, funded by the European Research Council (ERC). I officially start
September 1st and leave Canada on the 25th.

My primary focus will on the following research question:

   - *How are digital data generated and processed about cities and their
   citizens?* with some crossover on
   - *How are discourses and practices of city governance translated into
   code? *

The particulars will be worked out once the international team gathers for
the first time in Maynooth in September. Research activities, reflections
and results will be shared on a website or blog once the project gets
started. They will of course be disseminated in the usual academic fora.

I will continue to be involved with the GCRC as a member and do watch for
the *Developments in the Theory and Practice of Cybercartography:
Applications and Indigenous Mapping *book ed. by Prof. Taylor and myself as
associate editor.*  *In addition I will continue to be:

   - a member of the Canadian Geomatics Round Table – Legal and Policy
   Dimension Task Team,
   - the Chair of the Canadian Cartographic Association (CCA)Mapping
   Technology & Spatial Data Special Interest Group,
   - and a member of the Research Data Alliance -CODATA legal
   interoperability of research data working group.

Sincerely
Tracey
