Explore challenges and projects

Dashboard

Visualizations that combine multiple graphs, metrics and even data sources into a comprehensive overview of the situation. Make sure to provide instructions about running the dashboard locally, and how to contribute improvements or additional widgets.

Data Science

These projects use analytical tools such as statistical exploration or machine learning to crunch the numbers. Please make sure there is an explanation of how to set up a live environment, ideally in a "one click" way through services like Renku, MyBinder, Colab, ...

Guidelines

Just as important as communicating information, is knowing WHAT to communicate, what NOT to do, and HOW. If you have published guidelines or have created tools to improve the readability, accessibility, authenticity or otherwise improve the methods of communication around the pandemic, share them here. Do make sure to explain how to apply, contribute and reuse these guidelines.

Mapping

Everyone loves maps! Share your geographical investigations of the pandemic here, making sure that there are no additional costs involved for embedding the map on a website, with instructions on how to reproduce the project or add content to your map.

Simulation

During a public health crisis, the ability to model and simulate the containment of the disease is a crucial tool for governments, NGOs and others involved in control measures. Share your work here, and let us know how to contribute to its further development, what data you are missing, and how to run the simulation offline (if disaster strikes).

Tools

People working on scripts, utilities, APIs and otherwise packaging data to make it more useful to the community are doing us all a highly important service. Please explain how your tool can be contributed to, reproduced as a standalone or inside another project, whether there are example uses, what issues people should be aware of (rate limits, for example).

Start project

Projects shared here must meet the Open Definition and have an appropriate open source or open data license. They also need to have been started or intensely developed in 2020. You may also highlight projects which you admire but did not work on yourself. Pure data sources can be listed if wrapped in an interactive Tool. If you are not sure how to add a project, or have any other questions, join the chat and contact us for help in the Town Square.

Let's showcase the open data community response to Covid-19, what we have learned and how open data causes have been impacted in early 2020! 🤞 During the beginning of the year, you took part in hackathons, worked on projects, helped to make data and analysis on the impact of the pandemic on life in this country more visible, collaborated on a range initiatives, and made a lasting impact. In the days to follow we are continuing to share critical advice and supportive action across a number of frontlines. Share your open projects, visualizations, analytics, and critical tools that need community support. The showcase was started at the Opendata.ch/2020 online conference. Together we can share knowledge and give each of them a boost 🚀
