Knoxville OpenData Notebooks

I wanted to create some parsers on the data that knoxville provides and make it more accessible for others. The goal of this work is to provide easily accessible csv, json and geojson files of the data. Also this can be thought of as a place to centralize the data and allow users to brainstorm on how they can use the data.

An awesome binder notebook is provided to help with exploration of the data. A binder notebooks is an jupyter notebook plus a google cloud free compute instance. This means that only a web brower is needed to program and explore the data. While we could have created interactive dashboards of the data this does not allow enough flexibility for the user to be able to ask any question they may have. You will find that the for each notebook the data is preloaded and a few simple questions are solved.

Sometimes multiple links for each data source exist. I will always prefer open easy to parse data. Usually I get them in this order: csv, json, geojson, excel, ... and others in no particular. A check indicates that the data has a notebook and it ready to play with! See binder link above for interacting with data.

Here are some the data sources listed on the knoxville open data website. A checked item indicates that the data has been parsed or is being worked on.
