Fulfilling the Promise of Open Data - Over 3 Billion Live Data Series
Today's Web is filled with Open Data - hundreds of authoritative, original data sources, freely accessible to everyone.
Before dataZoa, the actual practice of using Open Data sources was time-consuming, messy and painful. A major portion of time was wasted on "data drudgery"; cleaning, aligning, pasting, re-typing and such. All before any real thought or analysis could begin.
dataZoa solves this problem head-on, with its radically simple Drag, Build, and Share approach.
The promise of Open Data is that we can actively incorporate these sources into our day-to-day business and policy decisions.
For people who work with Open Data:
datazoa's Mission is to Erase the Pain and Fulfill the Promise of Open DatadataZoa in brief...
It all starts with dataZoa's path-breaking dZ-Dot browser add-on.
The add-on precedes you as you visit any of hundreds of supported sites, cleans up the available data, and places the dZ-Dot next to it, showing that it's ready to Drag into your dataZoa account.
Once you've dragged data into your account, you can Build calculations, displays and dashboards, freely inter-mixing any and all data sources as you see fit.
At any point, you can Share your work, with a simple SMS or email message, blog posting or formal website display.
Importantly, as the real-world data changes, your data, computations and displays all change with it, updating automatically.
Drag: Open Data from around the Web
Build: Calculations, Displays and Dashboards
- For example, build a regional composite of commuter data from three separate States.
- Your dZCalculation blends the three sources into a regional composite, which in turn can feed other calculations.
Tables
- Put the authoritative State data alongside your new regional composite into a chart or table.
- As the State data changes, the calculation and the display update automatically to reflect the new reality.
- Combine key displays, along with captions, weblinks, videos .
A closer look at your dataZoa Account...
Your dataZoa account offers:
Share and view these dashboards on iPhones, iPads, Android devices and PCs.
