Whitevoid's Data Visualization for the Lufthansa Brand Academy by Evan Orensten
Berlin-based interactive firm Whitevoid is getting a lot of well-deserved attention for their data visualization for Lufthansa's Brand Academy in Frankfurt. Visitors to the center can see all 14,000 Lufthansa and Star Alliance flights worldwide in real time and with a 360° view. The project allows for interaction with flight data, zoom in on specific flights or areas and listening to radio communications, etc.
It also includes equally impressive sound engineering feats, designed by Robert Henke of Monolake.
Read more details on Whitevoid's project site.
