Part of "The Triumph of the City" (ToC) Seminars: 30-min weekly talks on Future Cities from world-class speakers at the Centre for Urban Science And Progress (CUSP) London. Past talks at http://urbanbeers.org/cusp/
Abstract: Data Walking is a research project exploring the potential of walking to gather environmental data and through multiple walks and visualisations build a rich picture of that area. The project examines technology and tools for creative data gathering and experimenting with data visualisation, to create tools, gain insight, and share knowledge. The project has been through a series of phases and resulted in a number of workshops, presentations, designed artefacts, and a printed publication to help others get started gathering data on their own walks. In this talk, David will discuss the approach, activities, and outcomes of the project, look forward to the future, and encourages questions, suggestions and ideas for collaborations.
