Data Visualization in Practice – Informed Decisions through Visual Insights
Title
The true value of data and smart technologies lies in supporting better decisions and enabling more efficient administrative action. For municipalities, this can mean tackling pressing challenges — such as implementing heat protection measures or planning for schools and kindergartens — by making sense of the data they already have.
In this session, Eva Schmitz and Lukas Koch-Ruchay from the Data Competence Center for Cities and Regions (DKSR) will demonstrate how combining and visualizing existing data can uncover hidden connections. Through a live demo, they will show how even simple visualizations can help municipalities answer a crucial question: Where can we achieve the greatest impact with limited resources?
Participants will gain practical insights into building their own dashboards with Apache Superset, using real data provided in the workshop.
Bring your laptop if you’d like to join the hands-on exercise!
