❄️🚢 Using 6 years of AIS data & NOAA sea-ice records, I tracked vessels completing the Northern Sea Route during seasonal ice retreat. Despite global shocks (sanctions, etc), 2021 saw 92 ships vs just 10 in 2010. Visuals show daily sea-ice + tracks. Data: Kpler & MarineTraffic

🗺️ I've spent a lot of time the past week looking at data in the Strait of Hormuz so here is a quick animation showcasing the sheer volume of activity in the Persian Gulf last Friday. The data highlights "Tanker" only vessels (AIS code 80-89) so everything from Crude Oil Tankers to LNG Tankers.

#DataVizThursday 🐟 Here is a new #dataviz exploring fishing activity off Peru in 2024 using Kpler data. 38% of vessels near the EEZ were Chinese flagged. The heatmap reveals growing DWF patterns since 2017. Maritime data tells powerful stories—more to come! #dataviz #maritime #AIS #3d #map

My first month at Kpler was all about bringing AIS data to life with 3D animation. 🚢 From design-led R&D to data processing workflows & render tests (Octane, Redshift, Cycles), it’s been a deep dive into geography, scale & motion. More experiments & data stories soon—watch this space! #dataviz

I really enjoyed developing these clean concepts and motion effects to showcase various products/ideas present in TomTom's Orbis Maps. #3d #animation

A snippet of an animation I created for TomTom earlier this year as part of their Traffic Index campaign for NYC. That probe data is 🔥 #dataviz #map

Here's a little collaboration I made with infogr8 animating socioeconomic data in N America. It shows a segmented version of "Joblessness" and the change from 1990-2019. #dataviz

Hi Everyone! As I end an era at Ito World I thought I'd start a new era here too. Great to see/hear so many of you again. 👋 🗺️ YT of my 7 year Ito dataviz compilation below youtu.be/_Hc4bL7LENY?...
