The European Research Council (ERC) provides funding opportunities for innovative, groundbreaking ideas at the frontier of science. Moreover, ERC encourages high-risk research, which often implies the use of unconventional methodologies and approaches. A researcher obtaining an ERC research grant might find that the administrative rules at the host institution do not easily allow the execution of a risky research program, a situation that might jeopardize the innovative nature of the research. Based on the management of an ERC Starting Grant, in this presentation I explore ways in which the researcher can negotiate a more flexible management so to ensure the successful execution of the grant.

Mapping city, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland - RIA Library/IHTA Lunchtime Lectures
Lecture delivered by Paul Walsh on behalf of Prof. Ó Muraíle.
This paper addresses the difficulties of naming places in Ireland, the work done by the OS Topographical Dept. and especially John O'Donovan to ensure that names used on the 6" maps were as accurate as possible. The difficulties presented by the Irish language, the methodologies used by Placenames staff and the tensions between accommodating the Irish language origins or versions of names and later Anglicised forms are discussed, as are the compromises which were made. The accuracy of O'Donovan's method is assessed

See accompanying powerpoint presentation.
Day describes the work of the OS and in particular, of the Hill Drawing and Topographical Departments. She refers to the intellectual breadth of Colby and Larcom, the two key drivers of the Survey in Ireland and their connections with the main intellectual societies in Britain and Europe. The role played by the Irish Survey vis-à-vis the Trigonometrical Survey of India, led by George Everest, is discussed. The military training included drawing skills and some of the major exponents of artistic endeavour in the military wing of the OS are presented. Finally, the 1,600 drawings contained in the OS Memoirs are discussed in terms of their content, level of skill and their role in the Survey.

In the concluding lecture in the series, Colin Bray reviews the history of the Ordnance Survey in Ireland, the developments during the 20th and 21st centuries and looks ahead to the future of the Survey.
Rob Goodbody, 'From Rocque to the Ordnance Survey: mapping Dublin 1756-1847'....The Royal Irish Academy
Mapping city, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland - RIA Library/IHTA Lunchtime Lectures
This paper addresses the mapping of Dublin city from John Rocque's map of 1756 down to the OS mapping of the city 1830-40s, all within the canal ring. Outlining the limitations and exigencies of mapping in different periods, the various types of map, from estate maps, street directories, administrative maps etc., Goodbody surveys the mapping heritage of the city interpreting the maps under discussion, highlighting idiosyncracies and pointing to the developments in mapping the city.

Herity focusses on the period 1830-61 and O'Donovan's involvement with the OS 6" mapping project and the centrality of his role. His expertise in the Irish language and grasp of etymology, as well as his intimate knowledge of the history and antiquities of Ireland, resulted in the connection of 'placenames with history... raising them above mere words'. The importance of O'Donovan's fieldwork, keen ear, in-depth knowledge and forensic research are described, as are the treks he engaged in on a daily basis throughout the country. His connection with Petrie's work on Tara is adverted to. Betham's vituperative criticisms and the consequent scrutiny of the Memoir scheme and the OS work is discussed. Examples are provided of O'Donovan's linguistic prowess and his acerbic wit.

Mapping city, town and country since 1824: the Ordnance Survey in Ireland - RIA Library/IHTA Lunchtime Lectures
Walsh explains the context for the Memoirs, an intrinsic element of the 6" mapping project. Larcom had described the connection between the maps and the Memoir as a 'Portrait of the island of Ireland ... accompanied by a biography'. He examines Larcom's utilitarian perspective, the role of the OS engineers and their mathematical skills and the focus on the parish as the unit for surveying and description. The sections of what became known as the Topographical Dept. are described as well as the reporting systems in place. The pressures caused by budgetary overruns etc. and the ensuing political decisions re the Memoir scheme and its demise are discussed. In conclusion, the work of the 19th-century surveyors is connected to the current work of the Ordnance Survey of Ireland.

The subsequent applications of the maps for Griffith's Valuation, electoral boundary maps and other surveys; the heritage for academic research.
Art and Architecture of Ireland is an authoritative and fully illustrated account of the art and architecture of Ireland from the early Middle Ages to the end of the 20th century. The volumes explore all aspects of Irish art and architecture – from high crosses to installation art, from Georgian houses to illuminated manuscripts, from watercolours and sculptures to photography, oil paintings, video art and tapestries. This monumental work provides new insight into every facet of the strength, depth and variety of Ireland’s artistic and architectural heritage.

Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis: Population and Settlement - Rob KitchinThe Royal Irish Academy
Royal Irish Academy Conference: Spatial Justice and the Irish Crisis
23 April, 2013, Academy House
The on-going crisis and associated responses to it (political, governance, popular etc.) provides an entry point for a wide-ranging exploration of spatial justice as a theoretical construct and a departure point for empirical analysis. Discourses of justice, equality and fairness remain central to a range of interconnected debates as Ireland seeks to recover from the interrelated collapses of the banking system and property markets and the knock on effects through the rest of society and the economy. Scale is an important dimension in framing and constructing popular discourses concerning issues of justice, e.g. the role of EU institutions in shaping Ireland’s treatment of banking debt or the impact of national budgetary measures on particular places. The focus of this conference is on understanding these spatially connected processes, how they are functioning at different scales, their impact on particular or specific places and spaces, as they give rise to new or evolving social and economic geographies.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
