The Map

Firstly we have a been told to think abtract and walk around Stonehouse getting ideas for our maps and taking photos of the area, we did that and came up with some ides.

  • Marking mobile phone signal strength
  • Noise Pollution
  • Trees & Vegetation

Marking mobile phone signal strengths

This idea a great as its easy to complete and is quite simple to proceed, but as it’s so basic I think it will be very popular. I aspire to create something that’s not only basic but unique and hopefully nobody would even think of the idea.

Noise Pollution

This is also an exceptional idea but with noise pollution it changes between the times off the day and during the day it wont hardly be noise at all. Personally I don’t want to be recording results when its dark as Stonehouse is a particularly unpredictable area with the social standard, that can he hazardous to me and the team.

Trees & Vegetation

I think that this is the subject that I am going to record. Firstly because it simple and not hazardous, also that it a subject that I believe nobody else will think of. What i’m going to do is walk around stone house and look at the latest aerial photographs to mark out all the trees. I’m also going to mark heavily built up areas and heavy grassy areas.

First Insight into Stonehouse.

This is the most challenging of modules I think, as it requires all my latest knowledge to complete this task. We have been given an area and we must turn it into a model for our end project.

It’s quite a dirty area that can be unsafe at night. Also there is lots of new development in the area but the question is how/what were going to record for the new map. Some of my team members have already walked around Stonehouse and decided what they are going to record.

Union Street for example is quite a loud place that has known for a long time of it’s big nightclubs and entertaining nightlife, also it attracts other cultures and people within its area. In Union Street there is also loads of closed down business and re-development as well.
