Overview: 

The Integrated Multimedia City Household Survey dataset was produced as a result of a collaborative Economic and Social Research Council, ESRC-funded project across the University of Glasgow, Newcastle and Sheffield.

The purpose of the iMCD datasets was to provide a 360° overview of a life in the city, combining various datasets and methods of collection. 

IMCD Household Survey and Travel Diary:

Part of the overall collection is the iMCD Household Survey, which is available in anonymised form. The iMCD Household Survey interviewed a representative sample of adults (2095 people from 1508 household) in the Glasgow and Clyde Valley Planning area between April and November 2015. The Survey has a unique combination of questions covering detailed information about each household and their attitudes and behaviours to transport, education, computer and mobile phone usage, and sustainability. These data would be of interest to planners, researchers or individuals wanting to gain a better understanding of these topics and their interactions.
