NPR’s Day to Day featured a piece on a GIS project conducted by Amy Hillier of the University of Pennsylvania School of Design. Prof. Hillier’s research mapped low-income neighborhoods in Philadelphia that lacked places to buy healthy food. Her work helped to push through a new initiative to provide subsidies for building supermarkets in neighborhoods that are underserved.
