Data you could provide to a
Data Repository: Several of UBDC’s data sources can be available for international use depending on licensing conditions (e.g. British Geological Survey, Met office data etc)
Major challenges to building a
shared CMMI Data Repository: Licensing conditions, data discovery, infrastructure for data analytics
What you hope to get from this Workshop: a new research network with interests in discovering, acquiring and sharing complex sources of data
Knowledge of new data infrastructure and advances in methods to discover, curate and link data
Ideas for data linkage to understand transport and other social and economic problems
