The Tokyo Polytechnic University<\/a> has showcased c-loc at this year’s Digital Contents Expo<\/a>, a spectacular mapping software for “time and space” that runs on a touch screen. The technology looks super-futuristic, and it not only works but is actually useful, too.<\/p>\n

The idea is to visualize geographical and chronological data via 3D graphics and let users easily access and alter the data they see via a touch screen. c-loc can cover text-based information, images, sounds and videos. You can use it to visualize how a certain building (space) evolves over the years (time), for example. The makers target archeologists, historians, urban researchers and others with their product.<\/p>\n

Here are two videos I took of the mapping software in action at the event yesterday.<\/p>\n
