2. Three challenges: social applications I cannot achieve without GIS Ludi Simpson, Bradford Council and CCSR, University of Manchester

3. 2000-01 net migration within UK, % of population 2001, LAs White Not White Manchester Which map is different and by how much?

4. 1 3 0 1 2 1 1 1 How to keep data confidential?

5. Targeting areas: which 20 areas of population 25,000 have most unemployment?

6. Questions Does the toolkit include a solution? Does the toolkit include a solution? Has that solution been applied to this problem? Has that solution been applied to this problem?

15. (3) Targeting areas of need Indices of deprivation Data for much smaller areas Automatic zoning, homogenous with respect to deprivation No need for complete zoning Different from redistricting Target size X from policy purpose
