Description:
Population fluctuations driven by tourism are not captured by traditional population statistics, yet in some localities tourism is responsible for huge population fluctuations during the peak summer tourist season, e.g. as experienced in Devon and Cornwall, southwest England. Tourists staying within camping and caravanning sites, hotels, B&Bs, guesthouses or self-catering accommodation are poorly captured within official statistics at the small area level.
Smart utility meter rollout is becoming common place within many residential dwellings. Smart meters collect usage data (i.e. water, gas, electricity), for the purposes of customer billing, at a high spatial and temporal resolution which can be fed back to suppliers in near real-time. These data can be further utilised by researchers to infer household and small area population occupancy. This provides insights beyond decadal census counts and traditional population datasets. Timely, high spatial and temporal resolution population estimates are of high importance for geographers, policy makers, governments and emergency planners. This session seeks to present novel and emerging research within the development of detailed human population estimates from alternative data sources.
