Accessibility indicators for transport planning. (2012)
Book Chapter
Morris, J. M., Dumble, P. L., & Wigan, M. (2012). Accessibility indicators for transport planning. In C. Mulley (Ed.), Urban Form and transport Accessibility. Edward Elgar

Both perceptual and measurable specifications of accessibility are reviewed and their relevance to
transport planning established. The wide variety of analytical forms which can be used to quantify different aspects
of accessibility are categorised... Read More about Accessibility indicators for transport planning..

Smart meter technology tradeoffs. (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wigan, M. (2012). Smart meter technology tradeoffs. . https://doi.org/10.1109/TSAsia.2012.6397987

Smart meters have become a matter of concern for
many populations, although the technology is as always
politically neutral. The focus on electricity rather than all
metered services, water, gas and electricity is one aspect of this
public concer... Read More about Smart meter technology tradeoffs..
