Context Behind The Project & Project Conclusion


The purpose of this Portland Square info graphic is to represent the continual change of an environment over time, in this case the change of resources and elements within and surrounding a building.

The info graphic is designed to provide visual data of the continual change in the form of graphic design that is able to change dynamically as the building itself changes in real time. It takes the idea of replicating a changing physical environment and recreates it in a digital realm in real time as means of visually displaying the often invisible changes that are occurring within the physical space.

The project itself does visualise the data flow of Portland Square with current updates every half a second, however there is much more room for development if time permitted. The animation process of how the data is displayed is fairly simple, it would be great to develop this further with more sophisticated techniques.

Platform of production could be developed further in the future to allow for greater control over the visual graphics and provide greater depth and increased number of sensors and animations.

Depsite being created in java for web distribution, it would be a great development to enhance the distribution possibilities of the project to mobile devices, standalone applications etc.
