3D Cartography: 
Extruding and Animating a Global Network Dataset

For an exhibition at the Ars Electronica Center in Linz, Austria, I designed an array of visualisations with the aim of capturing the public's eye and drawing interest to the Geo-social Analytics Lab's DEGENET project.

FYI: The project itself is concerned with the identification of user networks on social media platforms which potentially post threats to democracy through the spread of fake-news or extremist views.

At the time of writing this, ArcGIS Pro didn't have any available tools for building arcs from an input line dataset. The only options for extrusion was to apply a single z-value to the entire dataest, and even this lead to a "wall"-like feature, rather than floating lines. In an ArcGIS Online global scene the floating visualisation was possible, but again, not the functionality to build arcs.
