Workshop session on geodata visualization

Yesterday we had an afternoon of workshops in an unconference style event at the office. A full registration of the event with video and slides will be published during the course of this weekend, but unfortunately most of it will be in Dutch.

I did a hands on workshop of a small datavisualization project I did this week and I registered myself on video using Screenflow. The video (in Dutch) is below:

And the result:

I did not make a keynote instead opting to the more hands on presentation of narrated browser tabs interspersed with live demoes and code samples.

Here’s a list of the tabs I’ve used during the presentation.
