Singapore Risk Elements |
Risk and hazard are terms commonly used to describe aspects of the potential for harm caused by environmental factors and other agents. Since 2014, Singapore has been striving to achieve the vision of being a smart nation. The most integral step in this direction is the analysis and assessment of risk, for it is only by doing so that we can build a healthy, safe and prepared smart nation. After all the steps taken by the Singaporean government and society to be more risk-free, it is important to understand our vulnerability - in terms of dominant contributing factors, location and key institutions that could potentially be affected by these risks. "Risk" is an umbrella term that could cover a number of topics and factors. It could even span industries. Therefore for the purpose of this study, we will define the boundaries of our risk assessment according to 4 agents of risk, namely Biological(biohazards), Technological(explosives), Natural or hydrological(floods), and Societal(epidemics). |

Singapore Traffic Accidents Analysis |
Singapore’s Intelligent Transport System (ITS) aims to make Singapore’s transport system more efficient and safe. However, traffic accidents are inevitable in any country and Singapore is no exception. Traffic accidents often result in fatalities, injuries and damages to public properties. In this project, we aim to analyse the spatial patterns of road accidents in Singapore and evaluate the effectiveness of traffic measures implemented by Land Transport Authority (LTA) to reduce traffic accidents. Through the findings that we have discovered, we hope to provide useful recommendations to LTA to further reduce traffic accidents in Singapore. |

Centroid-Amenities |
By 2030, Singapore’s Department of Statistics purports that nearly 1 in 3 Singaporeans will be over the age of 65, and will be in need of some form of eldercare. In the face on the oncoming ‘Silver Tsunami’, it is important that we rethink the placement and accessibility of our gerontological and palliative facilities, so Singaporeans can have access to the care that they need. Many existing eldercare facilities are located in the fringes of new town suburbs, and often near regional hospitals which are often further and less accessible from residential areas where the elderly would be. Our project posits that future eldercare facilities would be better positioned within the heartlands, to better serve an aging community. In this, we hope to equip town planners and eldercare facility administrators with the tools decide where best to place eldercare facilities. |

Combat Diabetes |
Spatial Point Patterns Analysis Diabetes - A BIG problem in Singapore. According to the 2015 report by the international diabetes foundation, Singapore has the second highest proportion of diabetics among developed nations. The root of many illness, such as diabetes, is obesity. Prolonged unhealthy eating habits are the reason for obesity and many other diseases. Our team believes healthy eating habits should be cultivated from young. Our project will look into proximity and concentration of fast food to primary and secondary school. Mapping the schools to these fast food, we can study whether there is a relationship between obesity in students and the presence of fast food nearby schools. |

Building a successful Jurong Lake District |
Ever since the announcement was made by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) in the Draft Master Plan 2008 Review, the development of Jurong Lake District as Singapore’s second Central Business District (CBD) has been ongoing. In order to ensure that Jurong Lake District achieves the same level of vibrancy, synergy and success as the CBD located in Raffles Place, we will have to study and evaluate the factors that contributed to the first CBD’s success. Our web application that aims to analyse the contributing factors to the CBD’s success and apply them to the context of Singapore’s second CBD - Jurong Lake District. We will do so by identifying the makeup of professional services located within the CBD, its prominent landmarks and analyze how these factors contribute to the CBD’s success. |

Hawker centres are a unique aspect of Singaporean culture, where people from all walks of life are able to enjoy local food. Besides offering delicacies from different cultures and having a clean and hygienic environment for the comfort of everyone, it is important for hawker centres to be situated at accessible locations. Furthermore, with the ageing population in Singapore, ensuring that hawker centres are accessible (i.e. is within walkable distance and is connected to public transport) is even more beneficial to them. With NEA being the main regulator our hawker centres, they have announced plans to build 20 new hawker centres in Singapore. With this in mind, we thought about how we could provide value to their planning through analysis and evaluations of current and future developments. |

Visualizing Burmese Infrastructure |
Currently, there is a need to upgrade the living conditions in different parts of Myanmar. However, it is difficult to pinpoint the locations of those areas that are in need of utility or basic infrastructure since the spatial points are all scattered. Our project aims to gather the population census data in Myanmar and map out the social demographic profile of the people such that areas that lack utilities and infrastructure can be easily identified. |
