The document proposes embedding data analysts called "data wranglers" within newsrooms and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to help utilize their data better. It suggests identifying newsrooms and data-focused NGOs to work with initially, having the data wranglers focus on short-term projects, and exploring data-based revenue models. The goal is to help organizations tap into the value of their underused data and find linkages between stories that are currently being missed due to a lack of data analysis capabilities.

KNOWLEDGE ARCHITECTURE: IT’S IMPORTANCE TO AN ORGANIZATION
To convert data to knowledge, a convergence of knowledge management, information architecture, and data science is necessary. This is called knowledge architecture. Knowledge architecture involves designing and implementing an organization's intellectual infrastructure to capture, organize, analyze, and utilize information. It transforms information into knowledge through applying context. NASA faces challenges with large amounts of growing and siloed data. Opportunities for knowledge architecture at NASA include improving search capabilities, developing metadata standards, using analytics and visualization, and creating a lessons learned knowledge graph. This could help NASA make better decisions by leveraging past knowledge and reducing waste.

NGOs and governments are empowered by data to better serve citizens. Data projects led by groups like UNICEF and Thoughtworks collect rich information from stakeholders through tools like customizable polls and visualizations. This allows project managers and country offices to gain insights that help their work, as seen in case studies of initiatives like mTrac and Kirril that crowdsource data for journalism.
Mining the Social Web for Fun & Profit Within Your Organization
In this talk, Matthew Russell explores why it is imperative for organizations and companies to leverage social media and how they can do it. In today's world of massive, rapidly evolving data streams, it is very challenging to sift through the data and extract the hidden nuggets of critical business intelligence. With advances in machine learning and natural language processing, decision makers can now look at all of their data and see what's really important. Matthew presents examples of how companies like Digital Reasoning are using social media to answer questions like:
Who know whom, and what friends do they have in common?
How frequently are certain people communicating with one another?
Who are the quietest/chattiest people in a network?
Who are the most influential/popular people in a network?
What are people chatting about (and is it interesting)?

Borislav Popov's slides from his lightning talk at Connected Data London. Borislav - a Director of Business Development at Ontotext presented Ontotext's approach to tackling the Panama Papers leak. Using a technology that is a mix between semantic web and graph databases.Open data for UK public sector organisations
Open data provides opportunities for transparency, innovation, and participatory governance. There are technical challenges to making data open, from simple formats to linked data. While open data is often implemented by volunteers and the public sector, its long term success requires involvement from commercial organizations who can analyze and add value to data at larger scales. Ensuring public interests are protected as more commercial actors become involved will also be important going forward.
Big data
Big data is used to describe a massive volume of both structured and unstructured data that is so large that it's difficult to process using traditional database and software techniques. In most enterprise scenarios the data is too big or it moves too fast or it exceeds current processing capacity. The term big data is believed to have originated with Web search companies who had to query very large distributed aggregations of loosely-structured data.
Embracing the non traditional
This document discusses the growing role of librarians in managing large amounts of digital information and data. It notes that the volume of new information produced annually has nearly tripled in recent years. While librarians traditionally organized books and resources, the document argues they are uniquely skilled to organize vast digital records and datasets through classification, cataloging and curation. These skills translate well to roles managing "big data" and knowledge in corporations and industries facing information overload. However, stereotypes of librarians' work persist, and opportunities in non-traditional information management roles are often overlooked. The document calls for embracing librarians' evolving contributions and skills rather than outdated views.
Introduction to Big Data for LABDUG
This document introduces the topic of big data through discussing its definition, characteristics, applications, and the role of data science. It notes that big data refers to extremely large data sets that are difficult to process using traditional methods. Common tools for managing big data include Apache Hadoop, while data science and machine learning help facilitate insights from big data. A range of applications are discussed, from healthcare to manufacturing to fraud detection. While some warn of a potential bubble, the document argues big data represents a significant competitive advantage across industries.
Schaffer
This document discusses the role of new media makers and participatory journalism in informing the public. It outlines how the news ecosystem now includes fact entrepreneurs, creative technologists, citizen media makers, philanthropic foundations, universities, advocacy groups, and government. It describes how "news work" goes beyond traditional journalism to include sharing information, facilitating conversations, crowdsourcing stories, data visualization, and more. It also provides examples of successful community news startups and new types of news sites that have been launched in recent years.
Big data
This document discusses big data and how it is affecting organizations. It notes that large amounts of data are being generated daily from sources like the New York Stock Exchange, Facebook, Ancestry.com, and the Internet Archive. Big data is transforming how businesses operate and impacting other parts of life. Hadoop is presented as a programming framework that can help organizations better manage and process massive amounts of data across different tools and platforms.

This document discusses data governance challenges in the era of big data and proposes solutions. It begins by outlining the rise of data-driven businesses and the challenges they face with data quality, access, and trust issues. This has led to the rise of the Chief Data Officer role. The document then discusses how data governance approaches need to shift from hierarchical systems of record to more networked systems of engagement to manage expanding data volumes and types from sources like IoT and big data analytics. Key challenges discussed include digitalizing trust in data and addressing risks from opaque big data models. The document proposes taking a hybrid governance approach and implementing a system of record for data assets to provide findability, understandability and trust for all organizational data.

Big Data
Big data refers to large volumes of high velocity, variety and veracity information that require advanced methods to enable analysis and insights. It is data produced from many sources, including social media interactions, website activity, photos, videos and more. Companies and governments collect and analyze big data to improve services, facilitate operations, seek new business models and boost effectiveness. However, big data also raises privacy and surveillance concerns when collected by governments. The future will see big data continue growing rapidly in size and analytical capabilities, while also facing increasing debates around security, privacy and the environmental impacts of data processing.
