SUMMARY:Points Unknown - Session III (Spring)
DESCRIPTION:News unfolds in places and every newsworthy event is shaped by the details of location. Those details might include the specifics of a neighborhood as it is today or of the history leading to its current configurations. Alongside the development of web technologies\, journalistic organizations have incorporated web-based maps to enhance reader engagement with stories. But these interactions haven’t always been easy to produce. Points Unknown will train journalism students in GIS and mapping techniques to analyze and visualize spatial information. \nIn session 3 of Points Unknown\, we will move beyond operations such as overlays and spatial joins and begin to perform analysis on our data. This will include common operations\, such as generating heatmaps\, and more complex operations such as generating isochrones. \nRegister to Attend

SUMMARY:Magic Grant Information Session - Stanford
DESCRIPTION:The David and Helen Gurley Brown Institute at Columbia Journalism School and the School of Engineering at Stanford are delighted to announce its 2022-2023 Magic Grant program. Applications are due April 8\, 2022! \nTo provide more information about our grants and the application process\, the Brown Institute is hosting virtual Magic Grant Information Sessions on the following dates: \n\nThursday\, March 3 from 4:30-5:30pm PST [Register]\nTuesday\, March 15 from 11-12pm PST [Register]\n\nEach year\, the Brown Institute awards close to $1M in grants and fellowships to foster new tools and modes of expression\, and to create stories that escape the bounds of page and screen. We are committed to radical experimentation with the potential to define new priorities and practices for both engineering and journalism. \nThe “Magic Grant” program provides year-long funding awards ranging from $10\,000 to $150\,000 (up to $300\,000 for teams with members of both the Columbia and Stanford communities). In addition to funding\, grantees have access to a distinguished advisory and mentoring group\, support for professional development\, and connections to an extensive and inspiring alumni network. \nIf you’re interested in learning more about our Magic Grant offerings\, come to our upcoming information session where you can find out: \n\nThe types of projects we’re interested in supporting\nThe various types of support we offer to grantees & fellows\nEligibility guidelines\nHow our staff can help you develop your proposal\nHow to apply\n\nIf you have any questions\, write to us at brown_institute@stanford.edu

SUMMARY:Exploring and Mapping NYC's Building Energy Data Through Programming
DESCRIPTION:This event is part of NYC Open Data Week 2022. \nWe’ve all seen the energy grades posted at the entrances of large buildings in New York City. But how does one building compare to its neighbor\, or to buildings in other parts of the city? And how is the city doing overall? Are grades improving from year to year? Do newer buildings outperform older ones? Are there any interesting stories buried in the data? \nThis workshop will teach you mapmaking through programming — Python will be our language of choice\, and we will introduce powerful packages like Pandas\, Geopandas and Altair to explore geographic data. Our final product will be a Colab Notebook (similar to a Jupyter Notebook) with maps and graphs exploring the distribution of energy grades from 2020 and 2021 across the city and highlighting specific investigative leads. \nThis session will be led by Juan Francisco Saldarriaga\, Senior Data & Design Researcher at the Brown Institute for Media Innovation at Columbia University’s School of Journalism. \nNo prior programming experience is required. \nRegister to Attend

Those details might include the specifics of a neighborhood as it is today or of the history leading to its current configurations. Alongside the development of web technologies\, journalistic organizations have incorporated web-based maps to enhance reader engagement with stories. But these interactions haven’t always been easy to produce. Points Unknown will train journalism students in GIS and mapping techniques to analyze and visualize spatial information. \nTo conclude our series\, we will switch gears and utilize Google Earth Pro and Adobe Illustrator to export high resolution 3D earth imagery and add annotation layers to it. This is a very common technique for visualizing movement and space\, and we will walk students through the process from start to finish. \nRegister to Attend
