Editor's Notes
- #2: It is a honor to be here. I have been a fan of Git and Github for a very long time. Mention DOC announcement. My talk today is focused on the sort of collaborations that a platform like Github enables. However, I will be focusing specifically on collaborations that involve the Federal government, specifically the US Department of Commerce. But first, you are probably wondering who am I and why the hell am I standing in front of you speaking? Abstract: The U.S. Department of Commerce collects, processes and disseminates data on a range of issues that impact our nation. Having a host of data and ensuring that this data is open and accessible to all are two separate issues. This session will cover the Commerce Data Usability Project (CDUP) - a community-driven public-private partnership to help data scientists, programmers and other users to access open knowledge from our open data.
