Hi all. It’s that time again: Maptime! This month we’ll be taking a look at the New Orleans Regional Transit Authority (RTA)’s data. Benjamin Eckel has been doing a bit of work with the geo-data and will be sharing tips and tricks on what he’s learned. He’ll lead a discussion on how to get access to the data (which is harder than you’d think) and how to use & understand the underlying data.
As always, during geo-gossip we’ll continue our show & tell of interesting projects, news, and resources. If you have any links you’d like to share send them to maptimenola@gmail.com or tweet them at @maptimenola (or remember them).
Schedule:
Pizza and geo-gossip @ 6pm
Discussion @ 7pm
(Lock-up @ 9pm)
PSA: There will be a general discussion on ways MaptimeNOLA members can participate in the National Day of Civic Hacking on June 4th so stick around if you’re interested!
