Visualizing wind data over time with Ladybug

- [Instructor] In this video, I'd like to continue where we left off from the last one where we are visualizing wind speed and direction data coming through Ladybug using vectors in Rhino. And what I'd like to do here is to kind of change the visualization style that I'm using. Right now I can see everything from the time period that we're examining just kind of smashed right on top of each other and what I'd like to do instead is to have the vectors kind of chained together each one following the previous one, kind of showing us a path of how the wind speed might of changed over time. To do this each vectors anchor point needs to be set at the end of the point of the previous one, so they'll kind of chain together. So to get started I'm working in the exercise file 0060 Ladybug display vectors just continuing where we left off from the last video. To get the visualization style that I'm going for what I need to do is to get Grasshopper to add up the X, Y, and Z coordinates of all the…
