- Web Archives: An Untapped Source Of Smart Data - https://londondataweek.org/events/#web-archives-an-untapped-source-of-smart-data
The message we want to convey is that web archives are useful sources of ‘data’. I am aware that ‘data’ means different things to different people. For instance, for me web archives are a great source to access past web data at scale that is large amounts of web data instead of small and well curated collections. I am using such data to answer socio-economic research questions about cities and regions. I am aware that for different organisations data might have a different meaning, but we want to highlight these dimensions. We want to present web archives to the non-specialised audience and highlight this perspective.
I see these presentations as an opportunity to showcase web archives, their value, and utility to a lay audience. I am particularly interested in highlighting their untapped potential as a data source. I am also aware that ‘data’ means different things to different people, so I will leave this open to your interpretation.- Any input on why webarchives are smart data that you would like to pass on via me?
