Question: Data Visualization and Geographic Information Systems
As an IT manager, discuss how you would use the materials in Chapter 11 of your textbook communicating IT information to other department. Use APA throughout.
Associations today require expansive volumes of information to lead everyday activities locally and comprehensively too. Hence the data must be dismembered and talked with various branches of the affiliation (Ajibade & Adediran, 2016). There are a couple of contraptions and advances, for instance, dashboards data recognition data mashups, GIS and others that can be used to pass on information among the divisions in an affiliation. Data portrayal according to card et al. as alluded to in Eppler is described as the visual depiction of data with the usage of instinctive programming and application for better correspondence and appreciation of data. There are various techniques through which data portrayal can be gotten to including info-graphics graphs outlines and others to confer information over the affiliation (Fattah, Alghamdi, & A. Amer, 2014).
A few decades back the workplace inferred a physical space where delegates would work sitting opposite each other and later came email which is so far being used as a technique for correspondence. Today the significance of the workplace has completely changed and insinuated people working in different regions and collaboration with each other at whatever point critical using GIS. Taba and khatavakhotan clear up those geographic information systems help in the mix of various IT structures and organizations over the globe, which results in feasible correspondence. They furthermore shed some light on the fundamental concern related with GIS about how a wobbly and off base geographic information structure can achieve unforeseen issues (Caldarola & Rinaldi, 2017). see four stages in the used technique of a GIS organizing structure design execution and support. They discuss the use of maps in GIS for correspondence of an enormous volume of data in a legitimate or between various leveled conditions (Rabia, Shukur, Wills, & Liu, 2010).
As the chief, I would use the data examination applications in taking the data-driven decisions and data portrayal programming, for instance, tableau data wrapper QlikView, high charts, fusion charts. To pass on the message doubtlessly and rapidly make more grounded impetuses to animate my gathering and settle on fast decisions. I would use a dashboard the portrayal gadget as an organization gadget to track the estimations and KPIs. Similarly, I would use the mashup, the web application to utilize the organizations of my wander or utilize the organizations worked by others or to fabricate our own particular organizations for others to use.

Visuals are obviously the best way our mind plots information. We rely upon visual prompts to oversee and process colossal extents of information. Information affirmation saddles the goals of examination and adds a visual show to benefit by how our brains work. Sharp introductions takes after with over-inconvenience inspiration driving control, and geospatial information examination are a few events of the varying ways to deal with oversee manage work with information. Information confirmation programming can be to a mind blowing degree phenomenal and bewildering, for instance, Deloitte's HIVE arrange. At the other continuum are contraptions with essential, point-and-snap interfaces that don't require a particular coding learning or major masterminding. Most non-information pro all around influenced instruments to have instinctual parts and can pull information from Google Docs, Excel spreadsheets, Access databases, and irrefutable sources that most directors work with starting at now.
In the key piece of this zone, the contemplation is on the advances that fall into the information examination class. Later pieces look at information change and information blend. Vendor packages everything thought about offer instruments more than one class. All around, uncovering contraptions demonstrate what has starting late happened in a business. Investigative instruments indicate what may or could happen later on. Events of perceptions are dials, diagrams, and plots, courses of occasions, geospatial maps and warmth maps. The tricolor warmth outlines cautions the watcher to manager zones most requiring thought. Visual introductions make it less requesting that individuals understand information and see takes after that offer reactions to business questions like "Which thing duties have the most lifted and scarcest net livelihoods in each area?"

Finding nearest Neighbor in Geo-Social Query Processingrahulmonikasharma
Recording the region of people using location-acquisition technologies, such as GPS, allows generating life patterns, which associate people to places they habitually visit. Considering life patterns as edges that connect users of a social network to geographical entities on a spatial network, improves the social network, providing an integrated geo-social graph. Queries over such graph excerpt information on users, with respect to their location history, and excerpt information on geographical entities in correspondence with users who normally visit these entities. A repeated type of query in spatial networks (e.g., road networks) is to find the k- nearest neighbors (k-NN) of a given query objects. With these networks, the distances between objects depend on their network connectivity and it is expensive to compute the distances (e.g., shortest paths) between objects. We present the concept of a geo-social graph that is based on life patterns, where users are connected to geographical entities using life-pattern edges more specifically to allow finding a group of users in a Geo-Social network whose members are close to each other both socially and geographically. We proposed a new approach to find the group of k users who are geo-socially attached to each other and satisfy the all the query points. We used the Bottom up pruning technique for effective pruning of geo-social group queries. An important contribution of this work is in illustrating the usefulness and the feasibility of maintaining and querying integrated geo-social graphs.

The Community Data Portal (CDP) gives health care and community organizations the ability to easily analyze and share tabular, graphical, and geospatial displays of community indicators. It also enables within-region comparisons of counties, cities, neighborhoods, and other custom geographies. The CDP provides a powerful, interactive, user-friendly, and customizable webbased tool for organizations to share their data with the public, and is complemented by Health Landscape’s existing rich library of health and social determinants of health data. Tool configuration and data management are controlled entirely by the client, allowing them to update datasets and add additional indicators whenever the need arises.
In current lifestyle people tend to waste a lot of time in doing unnecessary activities like watching movies, playing video games, window shopping, etc. Many a times they are not aware of the cumulative time they spend wastefully. They can use their time constructively if they were informed about it through a mobile app. In our project we aim to develop an app which helps in monitoring the amount of time spent in such activities at various locations and inform the user about the same through visual display on Google maps. This app displays the summary of the locations visited during the day along with timestamps for better analyzing of data.

Location Intelligence - The where factorThomas Lejars
Taking the location context into account when analyzing business data allows for revealing spatial relationships, trends, dependencies, and patterns that would have been undetectable in a traditional enterprise applications or BI. Location is a central factor in business. Almost all business data have a location; a customer’s address, a store’s location, the competitor stores, a sales territory, a delivery route or an administrative boundary etc. Location awareness has a high importance for performance management.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Ask for maps – location analytics!
1. Ask for Maps – Location Analytics!
When we look at a metrics performance, we are interested with three W’s ‘What happened’, ‘When it
happened’ and ‘Where it happened’.
The ‘What’ informs about the metric’s health whether it’s doing good or bad against a pre defined
threshold. The ‘When’ informs the time period of measurement whether it’s current day or YTD etc. The
‘Where’ informs the location to which the depicted metric belongs. Unlike the other W’s, the ‘Where’
part need not directly relate to an address location, it can refer to a store or a branch name or a
department which in turn has a direct relationship to a location.
A graphical representation in terms of a geographical Map for the location factor dramatically improves
a user’s ability to relate to the information that is depicted. Had recently come across a practical
scenario on a how a tabular logistics data converted to location maps had a direct impact on the users
interpretation. Check out these links on the Maps and Data representation
• http://earth.google.com/outreach/tutorial_fusion_yourowndata.html
• http://www.microsoft.com/mappoint/en-us/home.aspx
For every industry location plays a very vital role, it’s not just for retail, telecom, internet businesses.
With the global network of data collection points increasing like mobile devices, kiosks, the ability to
garner location information has also increased, there by pushing for a need to understand a metric from
the location perspective. A separate set of analytics called Location Analytics has emerged in last few
years like http://www.locately.com/ which help in the analysis of location information.
Still now support for Maps is an additional option and involves some amount of specific configuration,
an ad hoc Map report cannot be created, but very soon Maps will become like a type of graph a ‘bar’ or
‘pie’ which can be chosen during ad hoc reporting. Such Map graph type can understand which of the
attribute is ‘location’ aligned, understand the dependency and map it.
Next time you start on an Analytical initiative consider map representation as one of the mandatory
visualization need.
Thanks for reading, let me know your thoughts.
