Open Data Project Exhibition

Join us for an exhibition of the final projects from the course “Info 290T. Working with Open Data.”

Open data — data that is free for use, reuse, and redistribution — is an intellectual treasure-trove that has given rise to many unexpected and often fruitful applications. In this course, students will 1) learn how to access, visualize, clean, interpret, and share data, especially open data, using Python, Python-based libraries, and supplementary computational frameworks and 2) understand the theoretical underpinnings of open data and their connections to implementations in the physical and life sciences, government, social sciences, and journalism.

Projects include:

• Analyzing Airline On Time Data
• Pet Photo Analysis
• Examining Gentrification in Oakland
• Find Us: Building a Missing Persons API
• Crunch-It
• Working With Flickr's The Commons dataset
• PLOS Cloud Explorer
• Energy Production, Sales and Price: A Historical Account
• Soteria
• Crime Against Women in India
