As a follow-up to the survey on data visualisation tools conducted by the Publications Office in 2015, a workshop on ‘Data Visualisation Tools in the EU institutions’ is going to take place in Luxembourg on April 14th 2016.
Organised in connection with Action 2.1 of the ISA² programme, the objective of the workshop is to collect institutional experience on data visualisation and user requirements for data visualisation tools in the EU institutions. The ultimate goal of this initiative is to develop a catalogue of reusable data visualisation tools to guide the user in choosing the best tool for them, and establish a community around this.
Registration is done via this questionnaire collecting information about data visualisations in use and requirements for data visualisation tools. Please fill it in before March 18th 2016. There are only 40 seats available and participation is limited to EU institutions staff. Within the questionnaire, you can propose a topic for a discussion table or indicate if you would like to briefly present your visualisation project.
A full report from the workshop can be accessed here.
