This project started in June 2023 and has recently been awarded further funding in the `Grow Phase’ of the National Challenge Fund (Our Tech Challenge stream) funded by Research Ireland.Addressing Ireland’s high vacancy rates is a core pathway of the Government’s Housing for All policy and critical to meeting carbon emissions reduction targets. Numerous incentives have been introduced but implementation is based on incomplete and fragmented data. The scale, distribution and nature of vacancy are not understood, despite this being an objective of government policy since 2002 (most recently in the Vacant Homes Action Plan 2023-2026) and a requirement of Ireland’s Strategic Environmental Assessment for the European Commission. The Building Stories project is developing a comprehensive, dynamic geospatial data model on the built environment at the granular scale of individual buildings or sites in Ireland. The aim is to provide a management tool for the adaptive capacity of the built environment that can help address societal challenges such as the housing crisis, decarbonisation of the built environment, and the revitalisation of urban areas in towns and cities. The focus of the current phase is achieving output datasets for vacancy and developing a robust data governance framework and a tiered access model.The post will suit candidates with an interest in the planning, design and management of the built environment, particularly in relation to building condition, vacancy and dereliction, decarbonisation, and urban revitalisation. The successful applicant will join a small team focused on urban planning, architectural and social science aspects of the project. Additional teams on the project are focused on data science and data governance.Salary Range: €44,847 – €51,313 Per Annum
