ËRT - Moritz Brunner

Bringing Ideas to Life with Open Data

The ËRT project showcases how open data can turn creative ideas into impactful solutions. Leveraging datasets from the Open Data Hub, ËRT transitioned from labor-intensive manual data entry to streamlined, scalable workflows. This innovation led to the development of interactive landscape models that merge CNC-milled terrain reliefs with dynamic digital projections, providing fresh and engaging methods to explore geographical information.

ËRT is a pioneering initiative focused on creating interactive 3D landscape models that enhance understanding of geographical areas through dynamic projection mapping. Founded by Moritz Brunner, ËRT integrates high-resolution CNC-milled reliefs with digital projections, offering a unique way to visualize and interact with geographical information. In the video interview Brunner highlighted the key benefits of using open data: the vast quantity and variety of information available, and its easy integration into new projects. By leveraging these open data sources, ËRT can provide richer, more comprehensive models that respond dynamically to real-world information.

The Open Data Hub provides a vast array of topographical, environmental, and statistical data that can be easily integrated into creative projects like ËRT. Access to these resources allowed the project to evolve rapidly, enhancing educational and tourism experiences while showcasing the potential of open data in creative industries.
