Brief description Swarming: micro-flight data capture and analysis in architectural design. The project seeks to generate new knowledge about the safe capture, management and application of big data in sustainable city design. In particular, it aims to investigate the use of micro air vehicles (drones) equipped with diverse lightweight sensing equipment to gather data including atmospheric measurements and building temperatures and reflectivity. This is designed to meet the need for more site-specific and vertical environmental information to inform the design of sustainable architecture. The project also aims to research a cloud-based computing framework that will be able to handle very large volumes of data collected over extended time periods and locations. The data would then be used to develop visualisations and design models to inform architecture, landscape and urban design.
