• A case study of visualising environmental monitoring data: Northumberland Street Regeneration

This project will look into the development of a workflow for turning environmental data into useable information, specifically using data from ten air quality sensors deployed as part of the Newcastle City Council’s Northumberland Street Regeneration program in conjunction with the UKCRIC and Science Central funded Urban Observatory Programme (http://urbanobservatory.ac.uk). Open source software will be used to perform a preliminary analysis and initial processing of the data. 3D gaming software will then be used to finalise the data processing and generate visualisations of the data, in a format accessible to end users, and useable by the general public, retailers, Newcastle City Council, and partners of the Northumberland Street Regeneration program.
