Welcome to the repository for the Knowledge Flows project.
This project aims to deploy a novel data modelling approach to shed light on some key economic policy issues facing UK cities, taking a skills-based perspective on industrial diversification and resilience.
The project uses data from the Office of National Statistics on worker mobility to build skill-relatedness matrices for the Uk. More info about thre project can be found here
This repo contains a couple different packages to process, analyse and report on the skill relatadenes matrices exported from the secure facilities from the UK data service. The repo should contain all necessary data, scripts to run the analysis. The existing directories are the following.
Contains the data exported from the secure lab, these are the matrices reflecting labour flows matrices between industries for different time periods and industrial classifications.
This repo contains the rkf that processes the labour flows matrices exported from the secure lab (found in the Securelab_data_outputs directory) to build the skill relatedness matrices relevant to this project.
This repo contains jupyter notebooks that processes the skill relatedness matrices and runs some preliminary network analysis.
This repo contains a report on the data.
This repo contains any gephi environment used to process or analyse the matrices.
