Architecture of Radio App on an iPad

Architecture of Radio is a site-specific application for iOS and Android devices that reveals the invisible view of networks all around us. It uses GPS to locate where the users are and reaches near cell towers from OpenCellID. When the location is calculated, it provides a 360 degrees view of the site. This application was made with Three.js and Ionic Framework, and with these software, it works by reversing the ambient nature of the infosphere. Architecture of Radio allows us to visualize the infosphere of a specific location and shows the system of data cables and radio signals surrounding us. This application helps the users by providing a comprehensible view of the network into the infosphere. Personally, I would like to look at the WiFi network around me that allows me to access the internet and various applications.
