Gareth Simons

Gareth Simons is a Senior Research Fellow at the Bartlett School of Environment, Energy & Resources, University College London, specializing in computational methods for urban analysis. His work bridges theoretical urbanism with data-driven workflows to generate scalable insights for sustainable cities.

• PhD, University College London (2016-2021)

His research focuses on computational analysis of urban morphology, data science for urban systems, and spatial data visualization. Recent work applies machine learning and network-based analytics to pedestrian-scale urban metrics, including mixed-use measures and centrality analysis.

Selected trends from his publications include predictive modeling of urban archetypes, development of the cityseer Python package, and energy efficiency strategies for urban infrastructure. These works integrate domain expertise with advanced computational tools.
