4 August - CSDI Awards 2025

Our junior students accomplished outstanding awards at the recent CSDI Awards 2025. This year, 2 teams utilized spatial data to create meaningful projects about the development of the Northern Metropolis: 

「菜農」可「再農」- Beyond the Blueprint

In this project, the loss of agriculture in the Northern New Territories due to the development of the Northern Metropolis was recognized, and two solutions were proposed to alleviate this situation - "Agri-tourism" and "Farm to Table". These measures introduce the general public to the significance of agriculture and increase the utilization of locally-grown crops respectively, ultimately boosting farmers' income and retaining their culture and significance. Students also conducted analysis to search for the most favourable location to implement these measures. 

This project ranked 1st runner-up and received the "Best Use of Spatial Data" award!

Alternative Energy in Northern Metropolis - Under_line

For this project, the second group proposed the implementation of various renewable energy sources such as wind power, solar power and micro-hydropower. They proposed the use of an innovative, yet eco-friendly energy source, which is the deployment of wind trees. By analysing wind directions and speeds in Hong Kong, students found potential sites to install wind trees to reduce carbon footprint.

This project received a Merit award!
