We spent yesterday at the BBC RAD hackday and decided to visualise the radio listening data from Radio Pop - 1800 users with 24000 listen "events" from the start of September to now.

 

This shows everyone's listening. Each row represents a user, with time on the y-axis. Each pixel represents one hour of a day and it is coloured in if the user listened during that hour, the colour represents the radio network.

 

The curved line is because the users/rows are in order of registration, so those at the bottom joined Radio Pop later, and hence started listening later.

 

Download the full-res version and zoom in to see more detail. There are some interesting patterns of recurring listening and combinations of networks.

Since it's not originally mine, I don't want any credit for it. I just like to bring it to attention because I think it looks absolutely stunning and at least on my screen it feels as if it had some kind of 3D effect due to the partial blur.

The visualisation compares the life and artistic production of the composers Giuseppe Verdi and Richard Wagner over a period of two centuries. It provides information concerning the personal sphere, historical events, and the chronology of the type and duration of the work of each composer. It also gives information related to the current diffusion of the composers' music production: number of albums released and number of representations planned worldwide.

The air in any small room with dimensions 5.4 x 5.4 x 2.7 metres (17.5 x 17.5 x 9 feet) contains 9.4 litres (2.5 gallons) of man-made carbon dioxide. Some of that gas – equal to the volume of a soda can – is attributable to Chevron.

 

9.4 litres is about half the volume of a drinking water bottle. There is that much carbon pollution in every small room.

 

63% of all carbon emissions between 1850 and 2010 are attributable to just 90 producers of fossil fuels and cement. The image shows the top 5 investor-owned or state-owned companies. Chevron has the largest share of emissions at 3.5% of all emissions ever. For details see: www.carbonmajors.org

 

The calculation for this visualisation assumes the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air is 400 parts per million by volume. See: www.co2now.org for the current concentration.

 

This is the metric version of this visualisation. A US version (calibrated to a 12 oz can) is also available.

The folks at the Medical Visualisation Network have set up offices in Second Life. Currently, it features some info boards, and some rather dramatically scaled pix of illustrations.

 

"...this Network presents a national focus for the development of new interactive visualisation techniques for teaching, training, surgical rehearsal and pre-operative planning. ..."

 

Looks like the right sort of folks coming into Second Life, hope it will be interesting!

Nice visualisation of my twitter group, and how they're connected. Great for illustrating the depth of the conversation, and striking how few companies are on there. It's almost exclusively individuals. Blog post here:

Having obtained a rather good and large dataset from the recently instated Greek geodata portal, i was looking for a way to quickly visualise its extent.

 

I admit to having in my mind those images you sometimes see at doctors practices, where, for example, they would have posters of the muscular or circulatory system, trying (a bit harder than i would feel comfortable with) to convince you of their...interests.

 

Fortunately, each road segment had a characterisation field attached to it so it was relatively easy to "paint" the highways thicker than smaller streets within populated areas.

 

The slight detail here is that the thickness of the "arteries" is decreased following a power-law...a little trick that was inspired by the circulatory network itself.

 

This image appears in this blog post (in Greek, you have been warned :-) ) which talks briefly about road safety in Greece....Yeah, sometimes the street is literally bloody...

heat map of OpenStreetMap tile usage for 25 May 2015.

 

Data copyright OpenStreetmap contributors (data from here).

 

Only shows tiles at zoom level 9... higher zoom levels (like 15-17) would give a better indication of possible editing activity.

 

Darker areas are more requested tiles. Done using deciles of the natural logarithm of number of tile requests

 

Used a short (<50 line) python script to convert the tile log (which is essentially a csv file) into another csv file with wkt for each tile's geometry added as a field. This was then brought into QGIS as a wkt delimited file. Simpler to do this than to mess around with creating shapefiles :)

Movie still from: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtqSIplGXOA

 

A single hour of New York City's carbon dioxide emissions as one-tonne spheres.

 

In 2010 (the latest year for which we had data) New York City added 54 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (equivalent) to the atmosphere, but that number means little to most people because few of us have a sense of scale for atmospheric pollution. Carbon Visuals and the Environmental Defense Fund wanted to make those emissions feel a bit more real - the total emissions and the rate of emission. Designed to engage the 'person on the street', this version is exploratory and still work in progress.

 

54,349,650 million tons a year = 148,903 tons a day = 6,204 tons an hour = 1.72 tons a second

 

At standard pressure and 59 °F a metric ton of carbon dioxide gas would fill a sphere 33 feet across (density of CO₂ = 1.87 kg/m³). If this is how New York's emissions actually emerged we would see one of these spheres emerge every 0.58 seconds.

 

Emissions in 2010 were 12% less than 2005 emissions. The City of New York is on track to reduce emissions by 30% by 2017 - an ambitious target.

Volume of air saturated each day by PM2.5 particles from heating boilers. This shows emissions from buildings that burn #6 oil (red); and buildings that burn #4 oil (pink); and emissions from buildings that have been converted to less polluting fuels AFTER conversion (green).

 

www.carbonvisuals.com/work/mapping-local-air-pollution-in...

 

Around 8,000 buildings in New York City have been burning heavy heating oil. These contribute more soot pollution than all cars and trucks on the City’s roads. The NYC Clean Heat program seeks to improve air quality and save lives in New York by eliminating heavy oil use and accelerating the adoption of cleaner fuels.

 

Carbon Visuals was asked by Clean Heat project partner Environmental Defense Fund to look at ways to visualise the emissions of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) in order to encourage building owners and operators to sign up to the program.

 

Visualising quantities of particle pollution is not easy. The air that supports the particles plays a part in making them dangerous to health (by itself, a pile of powder is not a threat)! For that reason, we show the volume of air saturated to the legal maximum. The maximum density of PM2.5 pollution averaged over an annual period: 15 μg/m3.

I made this video for my blog to show the pendant being worn and working with the MindWave Mobile headset. The crowd atmos in the background is to give the impression of wearing in a crowded social situation eg networking.

 

The pendant visualises EEG attention (red) and meditation (green) data and visualises it on this LED matrix in real time. Using a Mindwave Mobile, Bluetooth dongle and Shrimp microcontroller.

 

I've built this for use in excruciating social situations such at conferences, networking, bars, etc. I'm interested in extending our emotive state by displaying if we're paying attention to whom we're speaking to or if our thoughts / attention is drifting off to the canapes or our to-do list. It's a mischievous device, read more about it here rainycatz.wordpress.com/2013/05/27/eeg-data-visualising-p...
