World IA Day: City Data

I had the chance to fill in for Andrew Nicklin, NYC Director of Research and Development at DoITT, at World IA Day on February 11, 2013. The event was held after Winter Storm Nemo hit the region. We had anticipated up to 330 attendees, but the storm knocked out commuter trains, and road conditions in New Jersey and upstate New York kept many home. Still, an unexpectedly large crowd of 130 came out to celebrate Information Architecture.

I presented an updated version of my IA for Emergency response presentation, this time focusing on the collection and dissemination of city data and community engagement and how information architects and design professionals can participate.

I am working on a collection of presentations and talk summaries that will be posted to the World IA Day website.
