🔓 Data sets

These are data sets that we propose to prepare during the datathon.

Open Data Zurich

Data Providers: Marco Sieber and Michael Grüebler

• Public Art
• Open Linked Statistical Data
• Playgrounds

• Fountains (already processed but open for extensions)

The city of Zurich has over 350 Open Data sets on its Open Data Catalog, so we could also use further data sets if needed.

Open Data Canton Zurich

Data Providers: Matthias Mazenauer

• Population in Canton Zurich
• Percentage of foreigners in Canton Zurich
• Number of restaurants in cities/towns/villages in Canton Zurich

The canton of Zurich has many Open Data sets, so we could also use further data sets if needed.

SBB

Data Providers: Christian Trachsel -- he will join remotely via video call.

• Train stations in Switzerland - https://gtfs.geops.ch --> stops.txt / stop_times.txt
• Support data from Swisstopo - https://ld.geo.admin.ch/transportation/stop/xxxx

PLAZI

Data Providers: Donat Agosti & team

• TreatmentBank, descriptions of species

Open Data Thurgau

Data provider: Daniella Koller

• Population and age categories in Canton Thurgau

Other data sets

For these data sets there will not be a data provider. GLAM data set suggested by Beat Estermann:

• Monuments lists of the city and the canton of Zurich

💡Other team ideas

If there are several use cases that appear across teams and that require some coding (e.g. for data preparation or data injection), we can have a team developing support tools that help data providers import or prepare their data .
