Experfy Institute Malaria Prediction Using Big Data
Experfy Institute is developing statistical and visual tool sets for country managers and relief organizations to predict malaria outbreaks three months before they happen.
Big Data sources from NASA’s satellites are being leveraged to create a world-class resource that has the potential to save millions of lives every year.
Plants and Rainfall
The document discusses a goal to enhance rainfall by managing bioprecipitation cycle processes. This goal will be achieved through three key steps: 1) Building field kits to facilitate in situ data collection about ice nucleation microorganisms on vegetation, 2) Using an international team to collect data with the field kits in various geographical regions, and 3) Modeling the ice nucleation of microorganisms to provide data to understand which plants release the most active microorganisms, whether their release is predictable, and the optimal landscape conditions for their release and effect on rainfall.
CaBA Knowledge Management Framework
Two way data sharing between government agencies and community groups is essential to ensure effective delivery of the Water Framework Directive and many other statutory and environmental management objectives. Achieving this will require some joined-up thinking and investment in strategic infrastructure, particularly for the community groups who aren't currently covered by the INSPIRE directive.
The Rivers Trust as the umbrella body for the rivers trusts movement are key players working towards this aim.
Weather Data: Virtual, In-Field, or Regional Network—Does It Matter?
Which data source is better?
In the world of specialty crops, there is disagreement on how well weather-driven insect, disease, and frost prediction models actually perform. Dr. Dave Brown, former director of Washington State University’s AgWeatherNet spent years comparing different weather data sources and how those data affect the accuracy of common environmental models used by orchard growers. In this 20-minute webinar, he shares the surprising things he learned.
Decrease chances of crop damage with one simple practice
Find out how you can increase the accuracy of your predictive models and decrease frost, insect, and disease incidents by doing just one thing differently—improving the quality of your weather data. Discover:
- Microclimates: what are the conditions like inside a crop canopy versus outside?
- Virtual data vs. weather station data: Which is better?
- How do site-specific weather data vs. regional network data compare?
- How much does a small decrease in data quality affect the accuracy of your models?
- What’s the value of in-orchard measurements?
- What are some best practices for higher data quality?
Presenter
For 20 years as a faculty member at Montana State University and Washington State University (WSU) Dr. Dave Brown pursued research on soil sensors, spatial data science and digital agriculture. At both universities, he served in many leadership roles for major research projects, academic programs and most recently as Director of the WSU AgWeatherNet program. In this capacity, Dr. Brown hired and supervised a team of meteorologists who pursued research and extension activities focused on evaluating and improving the quality of weather data used for agricultural decisions.
Crop monitoring for Agri Consultants
This slide-deck is about how remote sensing helps Crop Advisors:
1. Identify and prevent vegetation problems.
2. Identify diseases and pests.
3. Identify problem weeds.
4. Monitor seeding and manage soil bed.
5. Develop a fertilization strategy.
Fund For Our Economic Future 2008 Report
The document provides an overview of the Fund for Our Economic Future's activities in 2008. It discusses leadership transitions at the Fund and highlights successes from 2007 including job and investment growth. It outlines the Fund's focus areas and grantmaking activities to support regional economic development organizations. Progress and impacts of individual grantee organizations are summarized. The Fund's research efforts including an economic dashboard and studies are also covered along with civic engagement activities to promote the region's economic action plan.
Lead Nurturing
Lead nurturing involves building relationships with potential customers over time through strategic communications. It starts by understanding customers' needs and providing helpful information. For example, if prospects are concerned about onboarding, sample training materials and customer testimonials could be shared. While only 25% of leads are truly qualified, lack of nurturing causes 79% of marketing leads to not convert. Companies that effectively nurture leads generate 50% more sales-ready leads at 33% lower cost and see leads make 47% larger purchases. Nurtured leads also produce 20% more sales opportunities.

Christopher Guess presents Push
Mobile apps and push notifications are often touted as the golden ticket to engage news consumers with timely and relevant content. For cash-strapped small and medium-sized news organizations a custom-built mobile app is a pipe dream, at best. In response to this problem, RJI Residential Fellow Christopher Guess presented about his ongoing project “Push” on Thursday, Aug. 31, at noon in Fred W. Smith Forum.
Push is an open-source, natively built, mobile news app for iOS and Android that any publication can take for free and easily customize for their own organization. With this tool push notifications, detailed analytics, offline-caching and many other features are available to local newsrooms in ways that only the big names could play with before.

She holds a provisional patent on immersive story for VR therapy. Hill is a former interactive news anchor for the NBC and CBS affiliates in mid-Missouri. Her team at KOMU-TV pioneered the use of multi-way video chat during a newscast. An alumna of the Missouri School of Journalism and former adjunct faculty, her reporting has taken her team around the globe capturing VR stories about the human spirit in the Amazon, UAE, Congo, Haiti and Zambia. Hill is fascinated with what she calls "Human Media," or the evolution of communication to a three-dimensional world. Virtual and Augmented Realities are two mediums in which Hill likes to create. StoryUP's roots are in virtual travel for Veterans. In 2015, Sarah built a program called "Honor Everywhere," that uses virtual reality to allow aging World War II veterans the opportunity to see their WWII memorial. As chief storyteller at Veterans United Foundation, she told stories about veterans and military families and used Human Media to give a voice to military charities. She's covered the aftermath of the 2004 tsunami in Sri Lanka and Indonesia and produced documentaries in Vietnam and Guatemala on the world's mobility problem. Most recently, her team produced VR documentaries from the Amazon and eastern Congo about energy poverty. StoryUP creates content at the intersection of Journalism and Neuroscience.

This document discusses how frameworks can help simplify archiving tasks for developers. It proposes creating framework plugins that integrate archiving functionality according to the Memento standard, making archiving easier to implement. This would encourage more self-archiving of websites and strengthen the overall system. Frameworks are most effective when they implement best practices silently, so these plugins aim to obscure the implementation details and make archiving just another standard feature for developers.Skinner, Katherine: Alignment and Reciprocity

EED - The Container Port PERFORMANCE INDEX 2023
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
