BSc [Hons] Creative Computing

My name is Darren Fagan and I'm from Cabra in Dublin. From a young age I've always had an interest in computers and eager to learn more. I've studied data visualization as part of my course in Creative Computing and based my project in this area. I also have a great interest in web development and data analytics.

Geospatial Visualization of Road Traffic Collisions

This application is an interactive data visualization web application created using the software environment R to visualize data using interactive graphics. Road accident visualisation was chosen as research showed that they are a major cause of deaths and injuries in Ireland. The aim of this work was to produce an application which would inform users of the characteristics of road traffic accidents and also to promote safer driving.
