Traveller engagement with aircraft flight tracker applications
In exploring flight trackers through a mobility lens, this study is situated at the nexus of the movements of people and objects, near real-time location-based navigational technologies, cartographic and mobile digital applications, and flows of information. Flight tracking applications (apps), allow users to see where aircraft are at any given moment from digital devices such as smartphones, yet little is known about their use, a gap which this …
The holistic bricolage research approach
This paper explores the use of holistic bricolage as a comprehensive research process, with a specific focus on its application at doctoral level. The holistic bricolage approach involves applying the bricolage process to the entire project, from inception to completion. In its wide-ranging scope, the holistic bricolage research approach offers a unique and beneficial research method that can be applied across various fields of study including ge…
The holistic bricolage research approach and disaster-risk reduction
This paper calls for scholars to consider and reflect on the potential advantages of the application of a holistic bricolage approach within a wider range of research contexts including disaster-risk reduction (DRR). We introduce holistic bricolage as a sixth dimension of bricolage and bricoleur expertise in addition to the other already established five dimensions. We propose holistic bricolage as a practical, ‘full’ approach applied from projec…
Visual and aesthetic markers of gentrification
Framed within the context of contemporary place making and the urban tourism destination, a novel trans-disciplinary approach to mapping and interpreting gentrification and cityscape change is presented. A combination of multi-scalar cartographic and visual techniques including Google Street View (GSV) and geo-tagged images (Photo Sphere), is applied within the setting of Valletta, Malta, to convey cartographically the dynamism of urban transform…
Stakeholder’s (natural) hazard awareness and vulnerability of small island tourism destinations
Small island tourism destinations are particularly vulnerable to (natural) hazards, disasters and crises. Although much literature considers disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies, risk mitigation and the impacts of disasters on the tourism industry, the literature on how these strategies are implemented and managed by stakeholders with vested interests is scarce. Understanding stakeholders’ awareness of threats, and their ability and knowledge…
Changing aesthetics and the affluent elite in urban tourism place making
At the nexi between urban aesthetics, power of the affluent elite, property and tourism destinations are complex intersections. These are explored utilising a critical theory approach within the context of neoliberalism and the concept of 'aesthetic common sense' is introduced. New conceptualisations of the ways in which tourists and others are influenced, demonstrate how they, through the processes of commodification and mediatisation, adopt the…

Geographical variations in mortality and morbidity from road traffic accidents in England and Wales
District Variations in Road Curvature in England and Wales and their Association with Road-Traffic Crashes
Bends in roads are known to cause road-traffic crashes, but do areas with many road bends have more collisions than areas with straighter roads? A geographical information system was used to generate indicators of average road curvature from a road-network dataset of England and Wales at the local-authority district level. The indicators were the number of bends per kilometre, the ratio of road distance to straight distance, the proportion of roa…

Unlearning the Legacy of Conquest
Historian Patricia Limerick’s book The Legacy of Conquest focuses on the history of the American West within the context of conquest as “the historical bedrock of the whole nation” and the American West as “a preeminent case study in conquest and its consequences.” Limerick writes that to “live with that legacy, contemporary Americans ought to be well informed and well warned about the connections between past and present.” The experiences, past …
