About the project: Mapping future Brisbane As our inaugural Digital Collections Catalyst, Keir Winesmith is developing a predictive mapping project to help visualise and analyse evolving Brisbane futures. An interactive online tool will be created for users to experiment with how different planning priorities lead to different Brisbane futures. The digital experience is powered by a machine leaning model that is trained on State Library maps and collections. Watch the video for more information and fill out the survey below.
