Looking Outwards-07 Information Visualization-Veronica Wang

Impact of sporting events on the local economy in Hammersmith and Fulham from Habidatum on Vimeo.

I’ve always been following and interested in Habidatum’s works. They are a data analytics and consulting group that combines multiple layers of GIS data and visualize them in a custom software called Chronotope. They provide simple and easy to understand graphics to convey space-time data and their works had been applied to architecture, master planning, financial, transportation and many other fields. They believe that “by transforming contemporary planning strategies into data-driven adaptive policies, cities and businesses can generate savings, profits and opportunities.”

I think their work is incredible in how it helps the audience grasp multiple layers of data in a straightforward way, and how they can help their clients make informed decisions of their investments that can affect the city’s urban fabric.
