Hack for Impact: Yorkshire (External)

Location: Cloth Hall Court - Quebec Street - LS1 2HA Leeds - United Kingdom

Date: -


Remember: This hackathon is NOT TAKING PLACE AT ODI LEEDS. Make sure you go to the right location.
Hack for Impact: Yorkshire is our next hackathon. The concept of a 'data dashboard' for Yorkshire has been bouncing around our events and conversations for a while now, and we have already either worked on or seen smaller projects that examine specific topics such as the gender pay gap, innovation hubs, productivity and transport, etc. Understanding a whole region is a tricky task - where do you even start?

Is it possible to build a visual understanding of the whole of Yorkshire in terms of impact and value?

Bring an existing visualisation or tool and plug in some new data to see what happens, or play with data on the day to see what is possible. Found some data gaps or some dodgy data formats? Brilliant! The problems are as important as the solutions in an event like this because we want to know how we (or other passionate people) can help make things better!
