I decided to visualise the changes of data associated within a static environment, in this case a building...Portland Square based in the heart of Plymouth Universities campus. The building itself features a number of sensors that detect the changes in levels and values of resources and natural elements, from electrical usage to the levels of Co2, within specific rooms to the wind speed surrounding the building.
I intend to use a selection of these sensor outputs and incorporate them into a visual graphic that will determine the appearance of the visualisation and as a means of representing time based data flow in a more graphical form.
The information from the building is retrieved via XML and all available sensors are found at
http://arch-os.scce.plymouth.ac.uk/html_data.php?source=all_bms
The application will be built using Java and deployed as a web based application that will run in real time enabling the visual representation of a constantly changing building over time. First thing to do is to get the required data from the building and into Java to output a value.
