Mr James Parnis (PhD Student)

Abstract:

The advance of portable miniature computers, such as the Mica Mote developed by UC Berkeley, with attached sensors provides a mechanism to record data at scales and resolutions not seen before. This mechanism is currently in use by agricultural industry projects, including viticulture ones. Project Chardonnay is one of these projects and is focusing on several vineyards in the Margaret River area. The aim of this PhD project is to develop visualisation techniques for the data from Project Chardonnay. The purpose of these techniques is to aid the Viticulturists in their research and as such should be as intuitive to them as possible.
