"Functional visualizations are more than innovative statistical analyses and computational algorithms. They must make sense to the user and require a visual language system that uses colour, shape, line, hierarchy and composition to communicate clearly and appropriately, much like the alphabetic and character-based languages used worldwide between humans." Matt Woolman Digital Information Graphics Goal VisualComplexity.com intends to be a unified resource space for anyone interested in the visualization of complex networks. The project's main goal is to leverage a critical understanding of different visualization methods, across a series of disciplines, as diverse as Biology, Social Networks or the World Wide Web. I truly hope this space can inspire, motivate and enlighten any person doing research on this field.

Entering the search term Rome on Flickr returns more than two million photographs. This collection represents an increasingly complete photographic record of the city, capturing every popular site, facade, interior, fountain, sculpture, painting, cafe, and so forth. It also offers us an unprecedented opportunity to richly capture, explore and study the three dimensional shape of the city. In this project, we consider the problem of reconstructing entire cities from images harvested from the web.

Het Groene Hart is het grootste nationale landschap van Nederland. Het Groene Hart is een prachtig maar kwetsbaar gebied, midden in de drukke Randstad. Het is van groot belang om de kernkwaliteiten van het Groene Hart (landschappelijke diversiteit, openheid, rust en stilte, veenweidekarakter) te beschermen en te ontwikkelen, en ‘verrommeling’ tegen te gaan. De Kwaliteitsatlas Groene Hart biedt daarvoor houvast en inspiratie. De atlas geeft inzicht in de bestaande kaders en regelgeving (beleid). Daarnaast beschrijft de atlas de specifieke kwaliteiten van het landschap in de deelgebieden van het Groene Hart, en de opgaven per deelgebied (gebieden).
