Dr Christine Steinmetz

Bio/About: 

Christine Steinmetz is a Senior Lecturer in the Bachelor of City Planning program at the University of New South Wales Australia. Her research on contentious land
uses in the urban environment, particularly the adult entertainment and commercial sex industries in Sydney, focuses on planning and regulation around these land uses, progressive and best models ‘in practice’ from a global perspective, and the significant contribution commercial sex brings to the night time economy. Her recent co-edited book, (sub) Urban Sexscapes:Geographies and Regulation of the Sex Industry (2015) covers many of these topics. Numerous peer-reviewed publications reflect her main areas of interest: subcultural sex-on-premises venues and the regulatory framework that surrounds them; generational cohorts and their perceptions of the meaning of place on university campuses; and postgraduate student experiences undertaking higher research degrees.

Christine has been full-time permanent staff member in the undergraduate Bachelor of City Planning program since 2010. Her current course profile consists of teaching Introductory to Planning (1st year), Qualitative Research Methods (4th year), Thesis Research Design (5th year) and Thesis Project (5th year). She has supervised over 35 Bachelor of City Planning honours theses since 2010 in a range of planning topics.

Christine currently supervises PhD and Master's by Research Candidates.

Research: 

Christine’s scholarly interests include learning and teaching in higher education; university campus design and the social construction of place on university campuses, communication theory and the use of progressive qualitative research methods in planning research. Current and future research agenda includes planning and geographies of adult entertainment and commercial sex activities.

Bio/About: 

Dr Hazel Easthope

Senior Research Fellow, City Futures Research Centre, UNSW Australia

PhD (University of Tasmania), BA(Hons) (University of Sydney)

 

Dr Hazel Easthope holds a prestigious Australian Research Council Future Fellowship supporting her research on the unique challenges of apartment living and strata title ownership, which aims to provide proposals to support better outcomes for residents and the broader community.

Dr Easthope has been working in the area of housing and urban research for over a decade. 

Since joining the City Futures Research Centre in 2007, she has undertaken research examining private rental housing, home ownership and social housing. Much of her research has focused on housing and planning policy, residential decision-making, residential satisfaction and the meaning of home. In recent years, her research focus has been on higher density living and the governance and management of attached properties (apartments and townhouses), especially strata titled properties. 

She regularly consults with government, community and peak body stakeholders and undertook a six-month secondment with the City of Sydney Council in 2011. This has led to invitations from a range of academic, industry and peak body organisations to present her research findings and provide policy advice.

Associate Professor Simon Pinnegar

Bio/About: 

Simon is an an experienced senior researcher with interests in metropolitan planning, urban regeneration, and affordable housing policy. He takes a lead the Centre’s current work on housing markets and on the Centre’s research on public housing estate renewal, including the longitudinal analysis of the regeneration of Bonnyrigg, tracking resident outcomes tied to NSW’s first housing PPP. He is also a CI on the ARC Linkage project: Implementing Metropolitan Strategies: taking into account housing demand and on an ARC Discovery Project exploring the drivers of suburban reinvestment through the knockdown rebuild process.

Between January 2008 and December 2009, Simon was the Director of the UNSW-UWS AHURI Research Centre, and following rotation to our partner UWS, currently serves as the node’s Deputy Director. He has worked on, and led, a number of AHURI projects in recent years, including NRV3 Housing affordability for lower income Australians (Yates et al, 2007; Burke and Pinnegar, 2007) and as principal investigator on research into the potential for shared equity/shared homeownership initiatives in Australia (Pinnegar et al, 2008; 2009) and into the role of partnership working in the design and delivery of housing policy (Pinnegar et al, 2011). Research activity is complemented by teaching on the Masters of Planning course and supervision and joint supervision of six PhD students.

Simon graduated from the University of Oxford in 1992 with First Class Honours in geography, and subsequently completed an MSc in Geographical Information Systems at Keele University and an MA in geography (passed with distinction) from Carleton University and his PhD from University College London in 1999. His thesis examined how theoretical concepts of sustainable development became translated and presented through initial development, design and construction of a major visitor attraction created as part of the UK millennium celebrations.

Prior to joining City Futures in 2005, Simon was a Senior Research Officer at the Department for Communities and Local Government (then Office of the Deputy Prime Minister) working across housing, urban policy and sustainable communities directorates. His remit involved analytical support and strategic briefing primarily on aspects of housing market analysis, urban regeneration and renewal, urban design, and the management of a wide variety of Government research commissions including national evaluations.

Dr Scott Hawken

Bio/About: 

Dr Hawken is an Urban Designer, Landscape Architect and Landscape Archaeologist with local and international experience in professional and academic contexts. His work focuses on the agency of open space as a variable in the spatial makeup of the city. Open space networks and patterns are infrastructures in their own right and will increase in importance as cities around the world continue to develop according to dispersed development patterns.

Current Projects include an assessment of urban landscapes and ecological infrastructure in the rapidly developing delta cities of Yangon and Ho Chi Minh City. Cities in delta environments face special challenges associated with climate change and urbanisation. Hawken is working with international scholars on this project which aims to deliver cost-effective options for providing ecosystem services to the expanding populations of such mega-cities. Emerging Asian mega-cities will double in size over the next few decades. The implementation of ecological infrastructure as part of their open space pattern is essential for the future liveability and sustainability of these cities. His work uses a synergistic approach using advanced geospatial technologies and innovative fieldwork approaches within the Southeast Asian region.

Hawken has also been a key member of the Greater Angkor Project. The project is an international collaboration between Sydney University, the École française d’Extrême-Orient and APSARA, the Cambodian authority charged with managing the archaeological heritage of Angkor. The Greater Angkor Project is guided by an archaeological approach to understanding urban development. Current approaches to urban sustainability are biased towards ‘future gazing’ and lack the rigor of an archaeological time perspective. Such long term perspectives provides insights into the possibilities and consequences of future development scenarios in relation to ecological systems, and also the inertia and legacy of massive urban structures.

 

Research: 

Scott's research covers four areas: Landscape Archaeology, Urban Ecology, Smart Cities and Urban Design

Landscape Archaeology

Scott completed his PhD in archaeology on the role of role of open space in the low density urban environment of Greater Angkor, Cambodia the largest city of the pre-industrial world. Using and re-interpreting high end geospatial methods developed for the study of industrial urbanism, the study recovered various spatial signatures that provide insights into the spatial evolution of the metropolis over a 3000 year period. Deliverables include a range of digital maps and a series of qualitative and quantitative spatial analyses generated through analysis of remote sensed features in a GIS. The research informs understanding of both past and present environments. The findings are highly significant in the context of the rapidly developing modern town of Siem Reap as it emerges from the massive shadow of Angkor to irreversibly change the landscape. The findings will be delivered to APSARA - the local management authority for Angkor Archaeological Park.

Urban Ecology

Scott is currently working with a group of international scholars on planning ecological infrastructure for emerging megacities in the delta environments of Southeast Asia. The work involves the analysis and classification of ecosystems in the cities of Yangon and Ho Chi Minh City using very high resolution remote sensed imagery such as Worldview and Ikonos. Proposed outcomes from the research include a decision support system to help plan ecological infrastructure in the face of increasing development pressure. The optimisation of such ecological systems within the expanding cities will help insure their integrity and increase the liveability and sustainability of these future megacities. Key to achieving this outcome is combining GIS systems with ecological informatics. The project involves partnerships with the Institute of Environmental Studies UNSW, the Centre for Remote Image Sensing and Processing NUS, and with the innovator of the Desakota concept - Prof Terry McGee.

Smart Cities and Urban Design

Dr Hawken co-convenes the Smart Cities Research Cluster at UNSW with Dr Hoon Han. He is currently analysing economic heterogeneity within central Sydney using 3D GIS. Work is aimed at identifying clusters of specific industries in a 3D environment. The work will also produce  scientific understanding of mixed-use environments and their relationship with different geographic districts and building types.

City Planning, Urban Typologies

PhD(Macq), BSc(UNSW), MA(Minn) FASSA, FPIA CPP

Through an association with UNSW spanning more than three decades, my internationally-recognised urban research and teaching has influenced understandings of the built environment worldwide. My work has also prompted national research and policy interest in urban planning challenges and legacies, helping to integrate Australian perspectives into world debates.
 
My expertise in urban policy has focused on the development of planning, theory and practice, in particular regional and metropolitan visions; heritage and conservation; infrastructure provision; and urban design. These threads feed into the overall mission of the Faculty to create sustainable, liveable and productive cities.
 
I help create community and professional understandings of the evolution of the built environment through a distinctive focus on the historiography of urban planning and design. One of my key capabilities is a grounding of research in the longitudinal view, engendering a deep appreciation of contemporary and future challenges within a historical framework.

Professor Sisi Zlatanova

Bio: 

I have graduated as a surveyor at the University of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Geodesy (Bulgaria) and obtained my PhD degree on 3D GIS for Urban Development at the Graz University of Technology (Austria). I worked as a software programmer at the Central Cadastre (Bulgaria) and have been at academic positions at UACG (Bulgaria), the Institute for Geo-information Science and Earth Observation (ITC, the Netherlands), Graz University of Technology (Austria), Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands) and Siberian State University of Geosystems and Technologies (Russia). I have joined the University of New South Wales in January, 2018.

I supervise master and PhD students on topics related to 3D spatial modelling and analysis. My recent research concentrates on 3D Indoor modelling and navigation. I am an author and co-author of more than 300 papers and I have edited and co-edited 23 books. A full list of publications (downloadable) is available here. I have been involved in the work of several international organisations. I am the president of ISPRS TC IV on Spatial Information science, the treasurer of UDMS and a co-chair of OGC SWG IndoorGML. I have been actively participating in the organisation of conferences such as Gi4DM, UDMS, 3D GeoInfo, Indoor3D and summer schools.

In my free time I am walking, hiking, cycling, swimming and reading.

I can be found on: Google Scholar, Research Gate, Scopus, Academia, ORCID, ResearcherID

Research Activities: 

I have leaded the following projects related to emergency responce and 3D BIM/GIS data:

Indoor Semantic Modelling for Routing: The Two-Level Routing Approach for Indoor Navigation: PhD research funded by CSC and Bentley Systems: PhD thesis L. Liu

 

Path planning for first responders in the presence of moving obstacles: PhD research funded by CSC and Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment: PhD thesis Z. Wang

Smart Indoor models to support crisis management in large public buildings (2015-2017), funded by the Dutch M4S/STW : http://www.sims3d.net/

3D SDI for the Port Rotterdam (2012-2014), Funded by the Dutch NGI: The project investigated BIM/GIS integration: demo ( BuildingBits, in Dutch), demo (Josafat Guerrero)

 

Research Cluster Staff, Geospatial Research Innovation and Development
Supervision Area: 

I am available for supervising on any of the following topics: 3D modelling (indoor/outdoor, above/below surface), 3D analysis, Indoor navigation, BIM/GIS aggregation, 3D reconstruction, Level of Details for 3D urban models, Voxel representations, AR visualisation, data integration for emergency response. 

I am responsible and teaching Visualisation of Urban data within the Master of City Analytics 

3D Indoor modelling, 3D GIS, integration of BIM and GIS, 3D spatial analysis, DBMS, emergency response

My research focuses on 3D digital mapping of the real world. This is important because a growing number of applications require 3D representations of buildings and their surroundings. By modelling what is happening indoors, in our public buildings, in our offices, hospitals and schools, we can work on myriad ways to make our environment more pleasant, more secure and more sustainable.

UNSW Built Environment encompasses several different disciplines, but the need for accurate and robust 3D mapping is something these disciplines all share. I see my role as an enabler, or facilitator, that can blend the work of research groups ranging from architecture, urban planning and landscape architecture, through to building and construction management, and city analytics.
 
As a teacher, I am responsible for the Visualisation of Urban Data within the Master of City Analytics and I supervise master and PhD students on topics related to 3D spatial modelling and analysis.

Dr Elisa Palazzo

Bio: 

I am an Urban Landscape Architect with experience in both academia and the profession. I have obtained a doctoral degree in Urban Design, Regional and Environmental Planning discussing a thesis on the role of landscape disciplines in urban design. Prior to joining UNSW, from 2006 to 2010, I have been teaching at the Universities of Florence and Pisa in Italy. In 2012-2013, as visiting professor and research scholar at Tsinghua University in Beijing, I have collaborated with the School of Architecture and the Graduate school of Landscape Architecture, until I moved to Australia in 2014.

I am a registered architect (OAF, It) and Landscape Architect (AILA) with over 20 years experience in the practice, working mainly with the public sector. As co-founder of the Swiss-Italian design office studiostudio, I was involved in several architectural, urban design and landscape projects in Europe, Middle East and China. As UNDP/UNESCO consultant, I have coordinated the Bethlehem Area Conservation and Management Plan in the West Bank, Palestine from 2007 to 2010.

My research interests include:

  • Climate and water sensitive cities and landscapes. Design for flooding. Adaptive urban design.
  • Adaptive capacity of urban landscapes, urban ecosystem design.
  • Resilience of cultural and peri-urban landscapes. 
  • Mobility corridors and green infrastructures planning and design.
  • Drone mapping for landscape planning and design.

Notes for Ph.D. applicants:

While I do read prospective student's requests, it is not possible to answer all requests. Please read the following for suggestions on how to successfully apply for a Ph.D. Scholarship at UNSW. Please carefully review my webpage as well as previous publications to learn more about my research and whether they are of match to your background. My work centers on urban climate and the methods are 1) numerical climate modeling (such as Large Eddy Simulation) and 2) IoT environmental sensing. Primarily applications are urban heat mitigation, outdoor thermal comfort, and building energy use. 

In general, I am more likely to reply to a student who has taken the time to research my work, especially if they can provide a statement of interest to motivate their decision to work with me. Additionally, please include the following documents when contacting me for supervision request:

  • Brief Research proposal
  • CV
  • Transcripts
  • English test result for international applicants

For outstanding students, UNSW offers financial support through scholarships. However, if you come with your own funding, it will simplify things a lot.

As an urban climatologist, I’m interested in the ways in which the built environment interacts with the climate, and in return, how urban dwellers are affected by this interaction. In particular, I focus on urban (over)heating and ventilation, and I follow two main tracks in my research. The first is enabling ‘climate-conscious’ or ‘climate-smart’ cities – How can we have a human-centric urban design that is in harmony with the local climate? I aim to tackle this question using numerical modeling and IoT sensor technologies such as wearables. My second research focus is on multiscale urban climate modeling. My goal is to develop modeling techniques that impact not only the climate analyses in the scientific community but also enable architects, planners, and policymakers to incorporate comprehensive, accurate, yet efficient assessments of urban design.

I am also passionate about promoting and advocating for women in academia as well as contributing to the Urban Climate community. As such, I am a member of the Board on the Urban Environment at the American Meteorological Society and represent the Faculty of Built Environment at the Women in Research Network (WiRN) committee.

Bin Hammad, AFIFA
I am a civil engineer with a Ph.D. in energy engineering interested in the relationship between extreme weather events and the built environment. My research focuses on improving the thermal-energy performance of buildings and cities.
 
I design advanced technologies and passive strategies to improve building energy efficiency, ranging from materials science through to the behaviour change of people. This work is vital to reduce energy consumption and contribute to a sustainable future.
 
My research touches on the global problem of climate adaptation and mitigation, but also social challenges, such as energy equality and how energy poverty impacts vulnerable people. I also investigate urban heat island countermeasures and solutions to improve pedestrians’ thermal comfort.
 
Drawing on my varied background, I bring knowledge that includes building physics, to the energy debate. I want to help society by contributing to, and educating people on, smart ways to transform and improve cities and their liveability.

Associate Professor Simon Pinnegar

Bio: 

Simon is an an experienced senior researcher with interests in metropolitan planning, urban regeneration, and affordable housing policy. He takes a lead the Centre’s current work on housing markets and on the Centre’s research on public housing estate renewal, including the longitudinal analysis of the regeneration of Bonnyrigg, tracking resident outcomes tied to NSW’s first housing PPP. He is also a CI on the ARC Linkage project: Implementing Metropolitan Strategies: taking into account housing demand and on an ARC Discovery Project exploring the drivers of suburban reinvestment through the knockdown rebuild process.

Between January 2008 and December 2009, Simon was the Director of the UNSW-UWS AHURI Research Centre, and following rotation to our partner UWS, currently serves as the node’s Deputy Director. He has worked on, and led, a number of AHURI projects in recent years, including NRV3 Housing affordability for lower income Australians (Yates et al, 2007; Burke and Pinnegar, 2007) and as principal investigator on research into the potential for shared equity/shared homeownership initiatives in Australia (Pinnegar et al, 2008; 2009) and into the role of partnership working in the design and delivery of housing policy (Pinnegar et al, 2011). Research activity is complemented by teaching on the Masters of Planning course and supervision and joint supervision of six PhD students.

Simon graduated from the University of Oxford in 1992 with First Class Honours in geography, and subsequently completed an MSc in Geographical Information Systems at Keele University and an MA in geography (passed with distinction) from Carleton University and his PhD from University College London in 1999. His thesis examined how theoretical concepts of sustainable development became translated and presented through initial development, design and construction of a major visitor attraction created as part of the UK millennium celebrations.

Prior to joining City Futures in 2005, Simon was a Senior Research Officer at the Department for Communities and Local Government (then Office of the Deputy Prime Minister) working across housing, urban policy and sustainable communities directorates. His remit involved analytical support and strategic briefing primarily on aspects of housing market analysis, urban regeneration and renewal, urban design, and the management of a wide variety of Government research commissions including national evaluations.

School Leadership, Research Centre Staff, City Futures Research Centre
In my role as the Director of the City Futures Research Centre, I help plan strategy as well as undertake original research on housing and planning policy in the academic, commercial, community and government sectors.
 
As a researcher of 40 years standing, I’ve always been motivated by issues around equity, social justice and undertaking practical research in the public interest. This aligns perfectly with the Centre’s key mission: to contribute to the academic debate on urban challenges while building the evidence base for policy change. In supporting UNSW Built Environment’s research aims we have been very successful; our work has fed into legislative change in NSW and major policy development at the Federal level.
 
A passion of mine, and a focus of the Centre, is equipping the next generation of researchers to face the urban challenges of tomorrow by providing opportunities for Early Career Researchers and supervision of PhD students in the fields of housing, urban renewal, city data and analytics, urban wellbeing, and metropolitan planning policy issues.
