This includes identifying communities that are under-served.\nAssess the correlation between social and economic indicators\, and the speed of connectivity\, to determine the role high-speed internet plays in community growth and sustainability.\n\n\n\nParticipants will create and submit data science products that:  \n\nHave a clear goal or hypothesis that aligns with the hackathon’s goals\nIdentify\, use\, and transform relevant open datasets\nOffer compelling metrics and data visualizations that support the participant’s hypothesis\nTell a story\n\nRural Alberta communities will directly benefit from your efforts\, as the output will be used to inform community planning and advocacy efforts for access to high-speed internet. \nSee the hackathon website for more information. View the full rules. \nPrizes \nOver $4\,000 in cash and prizes will be awarded to multiple teams and individuals.
