GEOSPATIAL RESEARCH SEMINAR SERIES (GRISS) – 31 May 2019
The spatial data that underpin the maps we see are often compromised by the limited space for them in the map. For example, a large amount of features have to be mapped in cities but there is comparatively less area to contain them relative to the feature-poor rural areas. We usually apply generalisation processes to select, emphasise and simplify representations of data in the map so that it “fits”. We introduce an alternative data-driven approach to allocating map space, where cartogram techniques expand or contract space to accommodate more or less data.

The collection and analysis of environmental data are critical to us understanding the New Zealand environment of the past, today and to anticipate the future. Conclusions drawn from environmental observations, analysis and models guide decisions and actions by governments, businesses and individuals. The complexity of the issues we need to understand require the ability to easily discover, access and use environmental data across a broad range of domains. The reality is that although environmental data is abundant, potential users are hampered by an inability to discover, access, and use the information.

Augmenting Abilities: Reality Capture to Design, Analysis, and Immersive Experiences The way we interact with the design process is evolving, from how we capture information about the world around us, to how we engage with design tools. This presentation will showcase how we’ve adopted emergent technology into daily workflows at Aurecon, enabling us to perform […]
