The next Open Data visualisation?
The amount of Open Data available is growing by the day, but most of it keeps on being published in their raw shape such as .csv .json or other formats. While the value of this data can be enormous, you need to process or visualise the data to analyse it and obtain new insights. Thus far, these visualisation have been primarily on your screen, two scientists from Linnaeus University, Sweden, are taking visualisations one step further. Aris Alissandrakis and Nico Reski are currently conducting research on the exploration and interaction of Open Data in a virtual and augmented reality

Developments of the recent years such as Internet of Things or Open Data have put a major focus on APIs. After all, the biggest potential of these developments is to enable the automated communication of data between services or products. Machine-to-Machine communication is only possible with the implementation of an API which fits the need of the system. With programs such as "6Aika" and "Estonian eResidency" the Scandinavian and Baltic states have pioneered in sharing data and eGovernment at both national and city level. The API Days Nordic Conference 2016 gathers the API community behind
