Big Data for Small Places
2nd Place Winning Project
BD4SP is a project that’s at its core is to supply small business and small places with the right tools to make better decisions in order to create growth. At the center piece of this project, we focused on Frontenac County, which struggled to make sense of all the information it had to pin point: where they should invest their money? Where are the healthy hamlets? What are the social demographic issues that affect those factors? And many more. This project is meant to give visual representation, make sense of the data that’s being supplied and help Frontenac make more calculated predictions in the its future.
