Top SchoolMark Dimond is an independent transport data scientist with 11 years of experience blending transport planning, data science, and economics across the UK and low- and middle-income countries. He has led international portfolios—most notably as Central Asia market lead at Integrated Transport Planning—delivering projects from urban transport strategy to low-carbon policy modelling that prioritised green investments across multiple nations. His PhD in Computer Science underpins work on GPS-based route prediction and journey detection, giving him a rare mix of rigorous research methods and practical modelling skills.
