Where to see NZ data
Today, Wiki New Zealand came to our department to talk about their work. I mentioned them in late 2012 when they first went live, but they’ve developed a lot since then.
The aim of Wiki New Zealand is to have ALL THE DATAS about New Zealand in graphical form, so that people who aren’t necessarily happy with spreadsheets and SQL queries can browse the information. Their front page at the moment has data on cannabis use, greenhouse gas emissions, wine grape and olive plantings, autism, and smoking.
