Sketchy Sections

Sketchy Sections is the award-winning project I participated in for the City of Seattle Hackathon hosted by GA.

Teams were given a day to develop a project which utilized public data provided by the City of Seattle and Socrata. The goal of the Hackathon was to promote the open data intuitive and civic action through open data portals.

I worked in a team of 6, with two web developers, two UX designers, and a fellow data scientist. Sketchy Section was our result.

The system serves to identify Seattle's most dangerous intersections by analyzing incident data against traffic signaling data. The results were displayed on an interactive heat map (above).
