today. Our digital identities will define the interfaces to the future services that we will use for entertainment, wellbeing, government, transport, energy, retail and finance. They will be constructed from our location history, our personal data, and digital
records that capture who, and where, we are and the histories of our digital, and increasingly our physical and social, interactions. The Horizon Centre for Doctoral Training in My Life in Data will therefore train a community of PhD students with the interdisciplinary
skills to address the challenge of digital identity and personal data for the 21st century.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

an enormous LBS consumer market. This research will investigate the potential blend of available new location technologies on low-cost devices and will explore how the services might be enhanced by the capture and analysis of personal data to build a profile
of an individual’s personal needs and history whilst maintaining security of the personal and location data. Furthermore the project will investigate how the data might be appropriately shared with, and added to, by the various different environments that
