PROJECT:
MapTraces

DESCRIPTION:
MapTraces explores alternative ways to aggregate knowledge, looking at other means to construct a map. Instead of utilizing top-down approaches, we construct a map of the city of Boston through the aggregation of many "points" of data.


FEATURES:
GPS based data collections over a large time scale yield a "trace map".
Used to explore what kinds of new information gathering techniques could be applied to smart surfaces, objects, and cities.
Gathered from human and mobile data.
