The inspiration behind the project is the increasing amount of open data and citizen science initiatives, but a lack of tools for sharing that data in the context where it's most relevant: the streets and the neighborhood.Use this tool kit to build and deploy impactful public displays to ...
Billy Barr first began recording snow and weather data more than 50 years ago as a freshly minted Rutgers University environmental science graduate in Gothic, Colorado, near part of the Colorado River’s headwaters. Bored and looking to keep busy, he had rigged rudimentary equipment and ...
