EnviroCar Visual Analytics – Mid Term Report

Filed Under: 52°North, enviroCar, GSoC Tagged With: , , ,

Introduction

The enviroCar project allows users to collect and share their driving statistics via an OBD sensor coupled with an Android app. The app collects car data and pushes the data to a server with a stateless REST API that exposes this data. The enviroCar project’s website, which is currently built in PHP, makes use of this API endpoint to provide a dashboard experience to a user for vehicular track analysis. The project’s objective is to rebuild the website as a SPA (Single Page Application) with the AngularJS framework. This could also serve as the starting point for the next generation website.more >

smle /ˈsmaɪ.li/ is one of 52°North’s new developments. It is a SensorML editor based on TypeScript and Angular 2. The implementation of this editor  started earlier this year within the projects NeXOS and FixO3. The idea of the Google Summer of Code activity is to enrich the editor with further functionality and input fields.
After the one month of development in this GSoC project, we can see the progress and can give an insight into the current state of development. The introductory blog post with the plans for all the summer can be found here.more >
