Data Driven Infrastructure

The purpose of the lab space is to provide the users with a safe and controlled environment for their experiments and processes, which are undertaken by and within lab equipment.

Ricketts says he’s spent time with case officers who’ve spent two days with a calculator trying to work out daylight sunlight calculations and viability.He points out that these people didn’t go into planning to do those things.

They went into planning to do the subjective work, and to do the planning..While working on the Reducing Invalid Planning Applications project (RIPA), Ricketts began to map all of the legislation and planning policy, turning it into rules-based code.He wondered whether it could be used to map against BIM models, in order to extract all of the relevant information that planners need to assess and develop a decision.

The aim would be to extract only the relevant pieces of information, out of the hundreds of thousands of bits of information in a BIM, leading to the question of how to present it for successful interpretation.This is where his second project, Back-office Planning Service (BoPS), comes in.

BoPS would take the information and present it to the case officer.

Ricketts says that although it all works in theory, in reality, we’re not even at the proof of concept stage yet.We’ve seen the recent studies showing how Twitter’s face-crop algorithm prioritises white faces and women;.

1. or the issues in 2020 with the UK government’s algorithm for predicting exam results during COVID, which marked down students from disadvantaged areas and backgrounds.. 2.We’re not suggesting that either of these was deliberate, but what we are saying is that we need to be super-vigilant.

We can’t – and shouldn’t – avoid or ignore the ethical in the origin, the present and the destination of technology.. 1.See (for example):.
