How we used Google Maps to review the transport accessibility of cultural institutions
What does it mean that an institution is easily accessible to participants? The problem of accessibility is certainly not limited to transportation networks and means of transport. Using the example of one educational institution, we show how the Google Distance Matrix API can be used to do carry out transport accessibility studies.

Medialab coders talk about the challenges of data acquisition and analysis
Successful data analysis in cultural projects would not be possible without the work of a team of coders who work hand in hand with designers and researchers to create the best tools and methods of working with data. We asked our experts – Dawid Górny and Marcin Chojnacki – to talk about their daily work and the challenges they face during each stage of the project.

Visualisation of Facebook data. What you will not learn about your fan page from admin stats. Part 2.
We typically expect the analyses of large data sets to provide us with simple clues that will increase the number and engagement of visitors to our page. Detailed research on interactions with Facebook posts shows that trends tend to vary from month to month, making it difficult to find universal rules governing social media. Our visualisations, therefore, do not provide ready-made solutions, but rather help users embark on data exploration for a broader look at fan page statistics.

Visualisation of Facebook data. What you will not learn about your fan page from admin insights
Administrators of Facebook pages have at their disposal a set of advanced statistical tools to track and study the engagement of its users. However, if they want to compare their own performance in relation to similar institutions or competitors, they are forced to seek the paid services of analyst firms. Alternatively, they may refer to the data from another source, i.e. Facebook’s API. This is exactly the way we decided to check whether researchers or cultural event organisers can gain a basic understanding of any fan page, while performing their own studies and visualisations.

Cultural data analysis is consistent with the positive smart city vision
Working under guidance from data science expert Piotr Migdał as part of our Shared Cities project, the workgroups are developing a range of tools for the analysis and visualisation of social media data. Network analysis conducted with these tools allows us to study the declared participation in Katowice’s cultural activities and present it in different forms.
