And thatโs a wrap! ๐ฌ What a brilliant couple of days using data to help the region tackle climate change ๐ ๐. Thanks to our enthusiastic & creative hackers for your brilliant work & to our partners & sponsors.
#DataVsClimateChange#DataJamNE#TogetherForOurPlanet
Thank you to North of Tyne Mayor Jamie Driscoll @MayorJD for joining us this afternoon, helping judge our awards and sharing your thoughts on how we can use data to influence behaviour change and tackle the #ClimateEmergency in our region.
#DataJamNE#DataVsClimateChange
ALT Mayor Jamie Driscoll addresses our Data Vs Climate Change hackers
Itโs #DataVsClimateChange presentation time!
First up is the @sageuk team hacking on the DEFRA platform. Their approach ๐
Problem - Siloed data
Target - Researchers, analysts & policy makers
Prompt - A dashboard to view relative biodiversity over time
#DataJamNE
Last but not least to present are the team from @Bulien_Partners who were also looking at the DEFRA platform.
The problem:
- Data is hard to access
The plan:
- Build a tailored solution to display info
- Make data relatable
- Build visualisations that make things clear
Using Alteryx @Bulien_Partners built a report which shows & compares average water temperature by region.
Future improvements:
- More datasets
- Machine learning & time series forecasting
- Power BI for visualisations
- Dynamically interpret data from DEFRA
๐๐ We stopped by the Carbon Battle Bus on its #ZeroCarbonTour to #COP26 during day 2 of #DataVsClimateChange. It was great to discuss what our business community can do in the #RaceToNetZero and how data can play its part.
