Data Visualization Competition

The objective of the Data Visualization Competition is to highlight the community-wide benefits of open data, including identifying potential improvements to government services and procedures, and recognizing potential business opportunities. The event is designed to help educate and communicate the benefits and growth opportunities from visualization your data.

All levels of government, academia and industry have large amounts of data available to the public through open data portals and this event promotes the use of this resource. Competitors will analyze, interpret, and compile the existing data and present a recommendation or solution on subjects ranging from social, environmental, and economic. The challenge is to convert complex data into an easy to understand presentation and communicate it to the audience.

This event will bring together citizens, students, academics, entrepreneurs, business professionals and members of government throughout providing several networking opportunities to strengthen these connections.
