Find information in your documents

A collection of reports, procedures or scanned records can become easier to search. A project could organize the files, extract useful details and help staff find an answer with a link to the original document.

Leonardo Schneider

Street Risk

Leonardo combined public crash and traffic records with street imagery to examine road risk in Sarasota, Tampa and Orlando. His application lets a user select a city and inspect a location.

Plan services around where people use them

Combine service records with locations and travel distances to see which areas you reach and where demand is changing. The result could help with opening hours, delivery routes or the location of a service.

Analysis and reporting

Avery Bishop

MLB Career Longevity Predictor

Avery assembled historical player performance and injury records, then built a model to estimate career duration. The project brought data preparation, prediction and an application for reviewing player estimates into one piece of work.

Prepare for changes in demand

Past sales, appointments or service requests can help you plan for the next week or month. A project could examine seasonal patterns and test how well a forecast performs before you use it for staffing or purchasing.

Yu-Hsin (Peter) Yeh and Maria T Lara

Exercise and molecular measurements

Peter and Maria studied public exercise research data to examine how molecular measurements relate to changes in fitness. Their analysis compared responses by sex and accounted for the number of measurements being tested.

Prepare the same report each month

If staff copy information between spreadsheets each month, a project could combine the exports, check for missing records and produce a repeatable report. Documented calculations make it easier to update the report and explain the numbers.
