Alper--- Thanks for the kind words w.r.t. the source code. I chose to export applications, not the web version because I found the web version's performance quite poor. Also, I was a bit unsure about loading the JSON in one go, and was too lazy to implement incremental loading. I do not know why Processing exports an app for each platform.

Iskander--- Glad you like it! The interactivity is very basic (and the animation spartan) but it does the trick, I guess.

Thanks for publishing. Looks very good! And playing with the sliders to create a animated visualization does add really something to the experience.

Full disclosure. Nice!

Two things:

Pretty much nobody ever looks at source. Those who do usually produce source code themselves so they know what the process is like.

It's odd that you would need to produce separate versions for separate platforms (and no web applet version?). I thought the point of Processing was to have stuff be portable. Compiled Java byte code files for instance are still portable.

We’ll serve government data up in multiple formats, including an API. Alper will support this project code-wise (he’s already been hacking away at widgets that reuse gov data for some months, as well as doing an interesting mash-up withKarsin 2008). The guidelines will aim to address any government worker or team asking the question “How do i open up some data?”. Hopefully we will translate this into English following our Dutch version. We’ll also fully document and make available the open
