I’m looking for any examples of brigade projects that have integrated data visualization (maps, in particular, but not exclusively). OpenOakland is working on an air quality visualization project, and I’m curious if anyone’s done something similar, or has examples that might inspire us as we enter the design phase.

Thanks!  
Jess

“projects employing data viz” is a really broad inquiry, but I’ll try to list a few I recall off the top of my head that seem particularly relevant from Philly:

- [http://street-vibes.poplar.phl.io/](http://street-vibes.poplar.phl.io/)
  - Cool use of timeline + mapboxgl vectors

- [http://machineq.poplar.phl.io/data-points](http://machineq.poplar.phl.io/data-points)
  - Descendant codebase of above, built to map IoT LoRaWAN sensor data points of air quality from bus-mounted sensors

- [http://whathood.in/Philadelphia/Northern%20Liberties/](http://whathood.in/Philadelphia/Northern%20Liberties/)
  - Uses point clouds on a map for density

  - A bunch of great project’s from Philly GIS firm Azavea’s 2016 “Summer of Maps” program
  - Includes an air pollution viz: [https://summer-of-maps.github.io/2016-ChemHeritage-HistoricalAirPollution/](https://summer-of-maps.github.io/2016-ChemHeritage-HistoricalAirPollution/)

Not a brigade project, but something my girlfriend designed for city of Boston: [http://opensrc.axisgroup.com/emissions/#](http://opensrc.axisgroup.com/emissions/#)
