Biography
Keun completed his bachelor and master’s degrees in Landscape Architecture at Seoul National University. He had worked as an urban researcher at KRIHS (Korea Research Institute for Human Settlements) from 2010 to 2014. During his doctoral study (2014-2018), he had worked at the Metropolitan Research Center at the U of Utah and completed his dissertation titled “Measuring the Dynamics of Public Space Use Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).”
Teaching Interests
Research methods; Data analysis; GIS applications; 3D visualization; Health and design
Research Interests
With degrees in landscape architecture and urban planning and design, Keun’s research focuses on digital technologies and spatial data analytics in planning and design. It can be broken down to two interrelated research agendas—1) technology-driven behavioral research in public space (drone, VR/AR, sensor, etc.) and 2) spatial research on smart growth and its behavioral outcomes (through geoprocessing, statistical modeling, visualization, etc.).
