Mark Dimond
BSc (Hons), PhD. he/him.
Independent transport data scientist and researcher Data mining, transport open data and data tools, and GIS.
My work is transport planning consultancy, transport data science, and data tools. Most recently I was at Integrated Transport Planning (ITP): my work there included managing a portfolio of both consultancy and R+D projects. Within ITP's international team, I had been the market lead for Central Asia, where I've delivered several assignments over recent years. For example, we recently completed a low-carbon policy modelling project, prioritising green transport investments for four countries based on national-level data.
