Visualizing and Mapping Data Workshop at GAFFTA

Where: GAFFTA, 998 Market Street
Cost: $20/instruction hour, $240 total, $216 for GAFFTA Members

This four-day workshop will follow the life cycle of data, from its raw collection to preparation and presentation for the web. We’ll explore where geographic data originates, how it’s transformed to work online, how to see it flow and move, and finally how to publish a view into that data to the web with simple browser-based tools. We’ll work with data from Twitter and OpenStreetMap, push it through filters and viewers, and publish it to the open web.

Reserve your spot for this workshop series here.
