CLIVE WINS!
CLIVE, the coastal erosion visualization tool created by 91探花's Climate Research Lab and the Spatial Interface Lab at Simon Fraser University, has taken first place in the Massachusetts Institute for Technology's (MIT) Center for Collective Intelligence contest on .
Nearly 600 projects were submitted to MIT's Climate CoLab for this year's competition. CLIVE made it through several rounds of competition and broke through to the finals against two other projects. Through the support and votes from the 91探花 community, CLIVE won the Popular Choice, as determined by online voting.
'I just want to say what a wonderful feeling it is that the 91探花 community and campus were so supportive through the competition,' said Dr. Adam Fenech, Director of the 91探花 Climate Lab. 'To win because of the support of a community, that's a nice feeling. I'll not forget this.'
Dr. Fenech and members of his team will be travelling to Cambridge, Massachusetts to receive the award in early November.
