This fall, teams from the Data Visualization class
submitted to the Police Data Challenge competition put on by the American
Statistical Association. One of our teams won
Best Overall Presentation, out of more than 70 teams from across the country!
The competition required teams to analyze data on millions of 911 calls
and make recommendations to the city. Congrats to Jimmy Hickey, Kapil Khanal,
and Luke Peacock; along with fame and fortune, they will also be presenting their
findings to the Seattle Police Department!
More info can be found in the official press release.
