Weather+

A vision for the Smart City's weather application.

"Data Canvas’ worldwide network of sensors inspired me to consider what a weather application might look like in the future. With the ability to know environmental factors at very granular levels, I imagine a new interface that accommodates the additional measured variables. It would allow the user to explore environmental factors with the same ease of today's tools, but with more features. Because the data is so granular and location specific, results would also need to contextualize themselves through map views, in the manner similar to the typical presentation of storm patterns within a region, but at the urban scale."
