[OKCon-Programme] FW: proposal presentation / tutorial

Mon Jun 6 15:11:48 BST 2011

Dear OkConf,

   I sent a submission to the conference after the deadline but failed to include the okcon-programme at lists.okfn.org address. Would it be possible to present in some form results from the SALAMI project at OKconf, see the attatched abstract.

Best Regards,

Tom

We have worked with several data sources to present an aggregated views on specific course and geographical area data. For example a student who wants to study nursing in Nottingham we can present details of the city crime rate, employment statistics, employment for Uk in nursing over time, places where the course is on offer, job profiles etc. We visualise this using numerous open formats including google graphs and maps.
