With a team of data-scientists-as-a-hobby, we are building www.17-56.cl, which displays insights from data about Chile. It is in Spanish, but feel free to look around. For example, I created a map that displays the votation in the Chilean primary elections: http://fernandoi.cl/mapascomunales/primarias/primarias.html http://fernandoi.cl/mapascomunales/primarias/primarias.html. Simple, but informative and fun.
Probably as a hobby you will not be able to write an analysis that will get published in a paper, but there is a lot of descriptive analysis out there that can be very interesting.
- RealAnalysis 9y agoHow do you know your statistical analysis is good? I'm rereading my intro to stats book and would like to use those skills to make good analysis.
- cuchoi 9y agoIt depends on the type of analysis you are doing. It is very difficult to generalize. If you are looking for causation, I would say to not even try it unless you are writing a paper.
- ivm 9y agoAwesome, I saw that we have so much data published by the government but it was always buried in endless spreadsheets. Thanks for working on this!
- cuchoi 9y agoYes, it is mostly government data! Also, this year there are presidential election in Chile so there is a bias towards that topic.
- eb0la 9y agoI really like it :-) Never underestimate descriptive analysis. After all, that's the first step you take before digging further in the data.
