PSFK presents FUTURE OF REAL-TIME INFORMATION “With participatory sensing, individuals and community members act as data collectors and as data users. This data helps groups understand what’s going on in their specific context, create evidence for change, or tell a story.” Deborah Estrin Director of Center for Embedded Networked Sensing (CENS) Professor of Computer Science, UCLA “Metcalfe’s law says the value of a network is proportional to the square of the number of connected nodes. As new nodes are added to our networks, both mechanical (sensors) and human observers (like Project Noah members), we slowly build a data network that has the capability to reflect the ever changing tides of life on earth. In one sense it becomes a 911 service for the planet, in that cries for help that previously went unnoticed, can now be heard.” Martin Ceperley Chief Technology Officer, Networked Organisms10 WWW.PSFK.COM

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON PERSONAL CENSUS “Making data public is less interesting to me than the capacity of the public to make data. I think that when one goes through the process of trying to measure something, one actually begins to understand how one directly affects that process, or what potential one has to facilitate change.” Usman Haque Founder and CEO, Pachube / Connected Environments “Data gathered from typically ofﬂine devices, such as the Withings Scale, is great because it doesn’t involve a change in behavior, but simply a new sensor.” Andrew Kortina Co-Founder, Venmo “Information coming from the ground and from the crowd has a great deal of relevance. Traditionally, we look at information as something that comes from a top-down perspective; from a media organization, a corporation or a government. Nowadays, it’s information that ﬂows from the bottom-up that’s changing the world.” Erik Hersman Co-Founder, Ushahidi20

By doing this, we not only inform them of their entitlements, but engage them in a process of monitoring them.” Sharad Sapra UNICEF County Representative, Uganda “We look at people and their mobile phones as a very interesting opportunity to allow individuals and communities to engage in systematic data collection that documents and addresses important things in their lives.” Deborah Estrin Director of Center for Embedded Networked Sensing (CENS) Professor of Computer Science, UCLA “The data is captured in real-time.

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON MOBILE COMMUNITIES “There are a few very simple approaches to keeping people engaged. First, you do things that matter to them. Second, you let them see the data and learn from it. Third, you tie it into social media, and rely on game mechanics to make it fun. I think we will also start see some form of micro-payment system begin to emerge—like frequent ﬂyer miles, or perhaps even actual payments.” Deborah Estrin Director of Center for Embedded Networked Sensing (CENS) Professor of Computer Science, UCLA “There is a lot more information being captured and shared than we can actually handle. During the recent Tanzanian elections,our platform was quickly overrun with the number of SMS messages coming into the system—5,000 in one day. It’s quickly moving from information collection, to the ability to curate that information effectively.” Erik Hersman Co-Founder, Ushahidi “How do you create a small business model around a data collection system? One of the ideas that we are exploring is like a frequent ﬂier program. If you participate in collecting data, you get a few minutes of free talk time, which you can use yourself or sell to others. If you share even more information, you get a solar cell phone charger, which you can then use to charge other people’s phones. It’s important to look for innovative approaches that can make micro business models out of these small things.” Sharad Sapra UNICEF Country Representative, Uganda50

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON INSTANT MAPPING “Maps provide a snapshot understanding, a simpliﬁed understanding, but they’re not the only way. From the beginning at Ushahidi, we worked with maps and time-lines together. We think that time and space are both relevant for real-time information.” Erik Hersman Co-Founder, Ushahidi “It’s all about situational awareness. If you can tell what’s going on around you, and can get alerts from your neighbor about what’s going on around them, you have a much better understanding of what’s actually going on. Therefore, decision-making power is increased when you have relevant information.” Erik Hersman Co-Founder, Ushahidi “We try to use metaphors that are familiar to people—and terms in which they are already thinking. So maps are an obvious medium.” Deborah Estrin Director of Center for Embedded Networked Sensing (CENS) Professor of Computer Science, UCLA60

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON CONTEXT CARTOGRAPHY “The biggest challenge is to cut down the delay on basic actionable data. On the ground, it’s micro-level data that is most useful. We are looking for data that comes frequently and in large numbers. We’re not looking at any data that cannot be connected to a relevant context in very simple terms.” Sharad Sapra UNICEF Country Representative, Uganda “Data without context is meaningless. You get a whole bunch of numbers, a whole bunch of locations, a whole bunch of news. But if there’s no context, data is meaningless.” Adam Leibsohn Founder, Voyurl “The minute an observation is made, it is geo-coded, time-stamped, uploaded to a database, put on a chart, as well as on a map, with no manual intervention.

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON TIMELINE NARRATIVES “Even with the democratization of technology, intermediaries still remain important for gathering and acting on the information provided by individuals.” Chris Anderson Editor, Wired “You need to make data accessible to make it useful—that’s why you see a lot of visualizations default to maps or time-lines. The mental construct and visual language is immediately, and globally recognizable.” Adam Leibsohn Founder, Voyurl80

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE “Technological networks of free flowing data allow us, as a society, to have eyes and ears around the globe, feeding information into the collective consciousness and conscience. As we gradually build our sensing capabilities, we are laying the groundwork of an infrastructure that will lead to a better understanding of the complex dynamics and correlations of the world we live in.” Martin Ceperley Chief Technology Officer, Networked Organisms “Development dollars continue to be pumped into building new “things” instead of maintaining what they already have. Things get built, work for a year, then break and never get repaired because there is no communication platform to alert the proper authorities. FLOW created a sensor network connecting all the wells and pumps in Africa to counter just that...” Andrew Hoppin Chief Information Officer, New York State Senate “There has been a lot of excitement about public transit data opening up—citizens are making applications to make their use of public transit more efficient by creating better tools for viewing schedules in real-time, on the go. Aggregating macro-data about these systems could be helpful in urban planning and allocating resources for new systems.” Andrew Kortina Co-Founder, Venmo90

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON NETWORKING NATURE “When people get more involved in the process of measuring things like temperature, or environmental aspects, over long periods of time, they become more attuned to other cyclical aspects of nature; the diurnal cycle, the monthly cycle, the annual cycles, and hopefully, better understand their capacity to effect change upon them.” Usman Haque Founder and CEO, Pachube / Connected Environments “Our society is using more technology than ever to monitor the pulse of the natural world, sharing data and observations with a speed never before possible. Invasive species, and their effects, can now be closely identified, studied, and remedied before widespread ecosystem troubles emerge—allowing ample time to enact policies to help mitigate further damage.” Martin Ceperley Chief Technology Officer, Networked Organisms “By fostering a global network of nature watchers, we are extending the internet’s reach and immediacy beyond the human species. As members grow, I envision an army of citizen scientists, ready to use their cameras and mobile phones to tackle the latest issues at a moment’s notice.” Martin Ceperley Chief Technology Officer, Networked Organisms100

JOIN THE DISCUSSION ON DATA DEMOCRACY “Citizenship is much more than just having a passport or a birth certificate. Citizenship is engaging in the development process and in issues that affect people’s lives—it’s as simple as aggregating data and putting it in public domain.” Sharad Sapra UNICEF Country Representative, Uganda “Government is woefully inefficient right now. Better information management and more open information creation and sharing could be silver bullets to destroy the deficits. Efficiency through transparency seems to be the theme here.” Andrew Hoppin Chief Information Officer, New York State Senate “Every service that captures data is hell bent on capturing as much of it as it can and keeping it in it’s own little walled garden. But when you keep that data in walled gardens, you limit it’s true potential.” Adam Leibsohn Founder, Voyurl110
