OpenDataCity – Agentur für Datenjournalismus
An overview in the data jungle
An agency visualizes online data, thus giving every user free access to complex topics
Today more data is being gathered and stored than ever before. This provides journalists with a veritable font of information that is not always easy to find. The agency for data journalism OpenDataCity gives the media a key for using this open source material: with the help of visualisations the start-up provides access to complex subjects. An example: an interactive map makes links between politicians and lobbyists visual. All applications are freely accessible and conceived by a team of developers, graphic designers, and journalists. Together they provide for more openness in the data jungle and promote new thinking in the media.
