Data Journalism. Workshop on Working with Geospatial Data
Workshop with Óscar Marín
The Data Journalism work sessions aim to be practical meetings with two objectives: to learn about and delve deeper into working with data through workshops, and to present and showcase local projects.
The workshop begun with an introduction to the different geographical formats and the most common ways of obtaining geospatial data. Then, there was an introduction to the Global Database of Events, Language and Tone (GDELT), which includes the records of worldwide protests since 1979. Finally, we used CartoDB to visualise and generate maps based on this database.
