Session: 2 for 1: Visualizing Large Greenhouse Gas Datasets in the Browser With deck.gl / We Give Back and You Can, Too
Visualizing Large Greenhouse Gas Datasets in the Browser With deck.gl – David Calhoun
Climate change through human-caused greenhouse gases (GHG) is something that increasingly concerns us all. In order to start curbing these emissions, we need a way to visualize where they are coming from and who is emitting worldwide. But it’s not all doom and gloom! The good news here is that GHG data is becoming more and more available, and it turns out we have the visualization tools available right in our browsers! After listening to this talk, folks will know not only where to find GHG data, but also how to visualize these large datasets using deck.gl.
We Give Back and You Can, Too – Chad Whitacre
