Evolution |
Temasek Polytechnic |
Our challenge statement is to improve Bishan-Ang Mo Kio Park in terms of thermal comfort and health using ArcGIS and crowdsource environmental data. Our team focuses on measuring from 11am to 4pm. We interpolated the points to get better coverage on the maps. We studied on thermal comfort for better positioning of the park tables and carbon monoxide level for better air quality for park users. The map will be useful for park users on what to expect at their preferred destination. |

Singapore’s military defence is important to us. This is why our soldiers’ conditions are our priority. Heat injuries frequently occur in the military. Hence, we proposed the idea of visualising the Heat Index (HI) in Singapore. The HI is a measure of how hot weather feels to the body when humidity is combined with temperature and derived from the formula using temperature and relative humidity. We used the sensor data for Pasir Ris Park combined with the Meteorological Service Singapore’s data to create the HI values. We are able to create a hourly visualisation of the HI values islandwide. |

Team BPJK |
National University of Singapore |
Incorporating 'Active Beautiful Clean Parks' (ABC) project as well as Singapore's recent SMART Nation initiative we turn to the use of Esri's ArcGIS platforms to conduct an Urban Heat Vulnerability assessment to show the exposure of heat across the park. We aim to provide both park users and park planners a tool for information and analysis in creating an Active Cool and Smart usage of our parks - city or coastal. |
