Seattle Area Business and Political Leaders Pursue New Way To "See" And Solve Problems
Seattle area leaders plan to introduce a technology that would enable the public and private sectors to tackle problems such as urban growth and transportation through advanced computer visualization, simulation and modeling.
The idea is based on Arizona State University’s Decision Theater http://www.decisiontheater.org/index.php?cat=1 , a facility that uses wall-size video screens, and moving charts and maps, to enable policymakers and business leaders to "see," in three-dimensional detail, the outcomes of decisions they might make about various issues, from urban growth and transportation to education and health.
The Arizona Republic describes the Decision Theater, launched in May 2005, as a "technical marvel that makes PowerPoint presentations look like cave drawings."
