Pedestrian monitoring
The City of Melbourne has developed a pedestrian counting system and online visualisation tool to better understand pedestrian activity within the municipality. The pedestrian counting system (24PM) comprises 28 pedestrian counting sensors in the central city, Docklands and Southbank which count pedestrian movements 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The sensors are located at main pedestrian thoroughfares and areas of high retail and event activity. The online visualisation tool is an interactive map of these sensor locations. It gives users access to pedestrian counts on particular dates and times and the ability to compare data. The system records movements, not images, so no individual information is collected.

CRM & Big Data: un élevage intensif mais pour quoi faire?
Why Big Data Is Getting The Bully Treatment
In the popular middle-grade novel, Blubber, author Judy Blume relates a truly heartbreaking story of a group of bored fifth graders suddenly taking to tormenting one of the girls in their class. In a space vacated by indifferent and lifestyle-preoccupied adults, Wendy, a shrewd fifth grader, directs a clique of classroom tastemakers to expand a private joke into methodical humiliation of a classmate. Linda, the bullying victim, is introverted, plain, and chubby, having done nothing to attract such cruelty, and lacking the skills to fight back effectively. Linda gained the nickname “Blubber” due to an unfortunate association of her chubbiness with a report about whales that she was delivering before the class, an irony that Wendy exploited to its limits. Big data is now attracting similar bullying by social, industrial, and cultural tastemakers. Like Linda, data for as long as we have known it has been soft-spoken, prosaic, and bulky. A schoolyard ripe for bullying Who is in control here?
Le Responsive Web Design n'est pas une solution, c'est un compromis
Voilà près de deux ans que je vous parle de Responsive Web Design. Largement plébiscité par la profession, le RWD est néanmoins petit à petit en train de se transformer en buzz word de l’année. Comprenez par là qu’au même titre que les Big Data ou qu’Ajax à son époque, on nous sort le Responsive Web Design en toutes circonstances comme LA solution miraculeuse à tous les problèmes liés à la mobilité. Or, la mobilité n’est pas un problème, c’est une évolution majeure dans les usages, une tendance forte que l’on peut subir ou exploiter. Bref, il est grand temps de démystifier ce terme et de faire preuve de réalisme. Le Responsive Web Design est donc un terme générique qui désigne une façon de coder une page web pour qu’elle s’adapte à tous les écrans. Plusieurs voix commencent à s’élever pour remettre en question la pertinence de certaines implémentations du RWD : Not All Responsive Web Design Is Created Equal.
