| The goal of this project is to explore interactive visualization of open data in a graphically rich, game-like 3D environment. We do this by developing a framework for rendering geographic and statistical data using WebGL standards - an already widely supported browser technology - combined with traditional dataviz tools and standards such as D3, GeoJSON and OpenLayers. Open Data about Switzerland is portrayed in our first live site. | The goal of this project is to explore interactive visualization of open data in a graphically rich, game-like 3D environment.

We are looking for ideas of what data to include or adapt this visualization to other uses - please [[http://make.opendata.ch/forum/discussion/110/open-data-alps|comment on the forum]]. |

| [[http://www.meteoschweiz.admin.ch/web/en/climate/climate_today/trends_from_stations.html|Annual temperature trends]] (MeteoSchweiz) shows the increase in °C/Decade around the country. We matched these numbers by hand with the location of the primary measuring stations found in the [[http://www.meteoschweiz.admin.ch/web/de/klima/messsysteme/boden.Related.0002.DownloadFile.tmp/neuestationsnamen.pdf|List of changed station names]], which we geocoded with OpenStreetMap's Nominatim. This was something of a painful exercise so we are looking forward to [[http://www.meteoschweiz.admin.ch/web/de/meteoschweiz/portrait/datenliberalisierung.html|more open weather data]]! Note: disabled due to glitches. | [[http://www.meteoschweiz.admin.ch/web/en/climate/climate_today/trends_from_stations.html|Annual temperature trends]] (MeteoSchweiz) shows the increase in °C/Decade around the country.
