Presentations at AAG 2024

At AAG 2024, I presented work on decoding perceived urban smells through geosocial media in New York City. This project asks how smell, a sensory dimension that is often overlooked in urban studies, can be made visible through text mining and spatial analysis.

The presentation focused on how smell-related language in long-term geolocated social media data can reveal spatial patterns of urban smellscape. Rather than treating smell only as nuisance or pollution, the work frames smell as part of how people emotionally and socially experience the city.

This conference presentation became part of the larger smellscape research trajectory that later appeared in Annals of the American Association of Geographers.
