A team of University of Waterloo students (Alex McVittie, Colin Tuen Muk, Corina Kwong, and Janet Hu) were one of six winners at NASA’s 2018 International Space Apps Challenge, winning in the “Most Inspirational” category for their app SongSAT. SongSAT is a tool to share the beauty of the world in different mediums, expressing the wonders of satellite imagery through audio. This allows the beauty of satellite imagery to communicate to an audience with visual impairments to enjoy the wonders of the world from above too, or to be used by musicians to aid with musical writing blocks.
