How Big Data is Transforming Architecture

https://www.architectmagazine.com/technology/how-big-data-is-transforming-architecture_o
It is saying that how big data is transforming the architecture, and there are some ways to change the architecture industry. As the article had mentioned, in New York, there was a type of architecture is emerging in which large skyscrapers, such as 375 Pearl Street , are being retrofitted into digital warehouses that accommodate computers rather than people. Similar buildings are popping up across the United States for the purpose of storing and analyzing data. These highly secured, windowless, and climate-controlled repositories are filled with our cat photos, banking transactions, and drunken text messages, not to mention all that data from the built environment. Nowadays, big data is turning building into smart buildings, more and more people are wanting buildings that can provide information and big stores of data. Companies are asking for data reports to improve the performance of their assets. With these "smarter" buildings, companies are becoming smarter and smarter with how they understand their clients and consumers. All through data that can be gleaned just from a building. Besides, big data is changing the approach to business. With big data, architects can estimate costs more efficiently. They can also find a larger pool of clients, then research design materials better. Architects have more access to data that can help them gauge the best materials and designs for their buildings too. From steel to wood, to different design techniques, data surveys can pull in research from all over the world and provide architects a chance to find these results without having to do most of the hard work. After reading the article, I think the great thing with big data is that it isn't making architecture absolute, instead, it's transforming the industry. It's helping it evolve. As companies are beginning to move more and more into the big data era, architects are going to have to start to creating buildings that can keep up and provide useful data.

How Big Data Can Boost Weather Forecasting

張岳庭 D0741017 Source:  https://www.wired.com/insights/2013/02/how-big-data-can-boost-weather-forecasting/ Considering the number of variables involved and the complex interactions between these variables, weather forecasting has always been extremely challenging. The significant increase in data collection and processing capabilities has greatly improved the ability of weather forecasters to pinpoint the time and severity of hurricanes, floods, snowstorms and other weather events. Globally, more and more evidence of climate change is prompting governments and scientists to take action to protect people and property from its effects. But to take effective measures, they need to know more about the weather-from everything that will happen tomorrow to what will happen next year. According to the professor of economics and finance , Alan Anderson, PhD , “Example of an application of big data to weather forecasting is IBM’s Deep Thunder. Unlike many weather forecasting systems...
