Silvereye

Silvereye is a tool for exploring spatio-temporal data and performing analytics on that data. Silvereye currently supports map visualisation of spatio-temporal data (e.g. soil moisture, water availability), filtering on regions (e.g. Murray-Darling Basin), time range (e.g. between Jan 1915 and Jan 2009). Users can quickly explore the data and understand trends for a given time and space selected.

Design goals

Near real-time data exploration – observations or forecasts
Easy data exploration for non-IT technical users
Give users control over time and space selection
View data on the web browser
Adapt/adopt existing technologies as much as possible
Enable reuse of backend services to a broad range of web applications/clients
Underlying technologies should be portable and easily switchable if needed
