Projects

  • VAST Mini-challenge 2017, Summer 2017

    Participated in VAST mini-challenge 2017. Developed a data pre-processor tool in Apache Spark and a visualization tool in Processing 3 which reads an image map, converts it to an undirected graph and plots paths as a subway map and integrated with Tableau. I received mixed reviews for the tool with the scores of 4 (Good), 4, 3(Average), 3.
