Next to present are our 3 platform teams. They were looking at the best way to display #ClimateChange info to engage the public & decision makers.
They explored creating a data discovery tool, bringing together disparate data sources using Azure Cognitive Search.
Now it's time for hack team 1 who were also looking at the DEFRA platform. They were exploring how humans are impacting the UKs waterbodies & how individuals could use the platform to make informed choices about which regions were most/less polluted using Power BI.
Next up are @gatesheadcoll who were looking at fuel poverty in the North East.
Problem: How can we identify fuel poverty & how big of a problem is it for our region?
Approach: Through domain reviews bring together master data set

🌍🚌 We stopped by the Carbon Battle Bus on its #ZeroCarbonTour to #COP26 during day 2 of #DataVsClimateChange. It was great to discuss what our business community can do in the #RaceToNetZero and how data can play its part.
Claire Thompson shares why data is so important to help us tackle the #ClimateEmergency:
⏳Time is running out
🗣️Need to be confident in decisions & actions
🤝Support collaboration
⏲️Ability to make corrections swiftly
📊Data & progress is visual & engaging
#DataVsClimateChange
And we're off !🌍🎉
