Panhandling in Winnipeg Project: Mapping Methodology

This Research Highlight focuses on the methodology used in the creation of a panhandling typology (various panhandling techniques) that was used to gather data in field observations, then mapped within a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) framework. This data was used to supplement the other two major components of the research study: interviews with panhandlers and a literature review. The methodology for mapping panhandling events includes: typology development, data gathering, and data processing
