Best use of Gold Coast Data

A large number of datasets are publicly available in GovHack-2015 website. Several relevant information can be obtained from various attributes of individual dataset. Moreover, it can be easily perceived that each of these datasets can be inter-related to infer various valuable analyses, which can increase the richness of the individual data. The main aim of our project work is to introduce a unique contribution towards the direction of finding relationship among different categories of datasets and creating a bridge between those (datasets).

Australia is unfortunately a home of number of disasters, disasters that often causes humongous losses to the Australian community.

Other than being resilient, foreseeing the disasters has been show to be the most efficient way to prevents deaths and losses.

Wouldn’t it be great if there  was an app the would :

Hey we're J4! A team of 5 based out of Griffith Uni on the Gold Coast. We decided to create Cordial a platform for people to view and discuss stories about their local communities. Cordial pulls data from both the ABC Local Stories repo as well as the Department of Indigenous Affairs and compiles it into one easy to read blog. 

As part of GovHack 2015, we came up with multiple ideas and narrowed them down to solve the below three challenges:

1) We often loose data connection when we go for boating - how can we improve navigation experience for boating?

2) How can we improve transportation using Live Traffic cam data?

3) Visualise ICT Data

Name: What we breathe.

Purpose:

• To raise awareness of the growing problem of air pollution and its effects on health.

• To visualise the main areas of air pollution

• Attempt to display a connection between a rise in air pollution and respiratory problems (Eg: Lung Cancer).

Target audience:

• Health agencies

• Environmental agencies

• General public

How it works:

Project Description:

Ausiness reads through the ABN bulk extract and displays the postcodes with the most businesses and then allows the user to search for a postcode. After the user searches for a postcode a map will display where the postcode is located in australia and show a visualization of the business types, abnstatus of other useful information that can be found within the postcode.

Project Description:

The high growth of the number of vehicles has led to roads with higher traffic density. The immediate effect of this situation is the dramatic increase of traffic accidents on the road, which has become a serious problem in Australia. Statistics show that in Australia more than 40000 people died by road accidents during 1970 to 1980. Also, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the majority of transport related deaths (72% in 2009) in Australia is associated with motor vehicles driven on public roads.
