Water Aware was created to help communities interpret drought and flood conditions through rain and river height data. From company SunWater, the site offers an option to sign up to receive automatically generated Twitter notifications. The information can also be shared on Facebook. Users can access and follow water level gauges that they have a specific interest in, then opt to receive automatic updates as the water levels vary.
As the water level gauge information is updated hourly, Water Aware is a particularly useful tool for landholders and residents living near a river or downstream of a dam or weir. As a result, the software can assist with understanding impacts of recent rainfall within the catchment.
Imperial College London tasked Shoothill to build an interactive map-based application displaying their vast archive of environmental data. collated from OPAL citizen scientists. This data included over 41,000 environmental records taken from thousands of individual surveys from all over the UK, spread over the previous 8 years.
Our challenge was to not only create a way to visualise this data on a google map but also to do so in manageable fashion. Due to the sheer number of records being mapped, we had to take care not to cover the map in 41,000 pins, one for each record. We solved the problem by creating a brand new ‘clustering method’, making each cluster pin a colour coded pie chart in itself.
