Over the last seven weeks, we have worked endlessly on improving our IQP proposal. Many edits have been made and we are approaching a point where we feel that proposal is a great explanation of the issues we will be addressing while in Venice and how we will address these issues. The "Methodology" section, which pertains to our plan to fix these issues, has been reworked many times. It now describes a succinct and effective plan for testing, selecting, and publishing information to Venice's Open Data Website (dati.venezia.it). It also explains steps for how future groups can select and publish data in an effort to continue the Open Data Project.
Additionally, in this final week, we are nearing completion and preparation for our final presentation. The presentation is a very quick and direct explanation of our project. We feel that during our time in front of the other members and advisors of the VPC site, we will be able to effectively communicate our goals and ideas.
We are very eager and excited to reach Venice so that we may begin our project work and assist Venice's Open Data Initiative through our data publications.
