See our damapdx.org site for more details and to register for August 4th</p> <p>ORIGINAL PRESENTATION: <br> The world produces more than 2.5 exabytes of data every day. There is just too much information out there and traditional reports using tabs, rows and columns do not paint the whole picture any longer.</p> <p>Visualization is one key approach to gaining insight from this mountain of data. Advanced Visualizations Platforms have enabled the use of more dynamic and interactive business graphics, such as real-time dashboards and charts that update automatically as the data changes. It enables knowledge workers to see the trends and patterns (along with gaps and outliers) in the data that are not as easily identified in rows and columns of numbers. Even Data Scientists are leveraging advanced visualizations tools to explore, understand and communicate insights, along with the actions that need to be taken.</p> <p>In this session, we will explore how advanced visualization tools are being utilized in the era of big data to draw valuable business insights and we will also delve into some of the predominant data visualization tools being used by Data Scientists.</p> <h3>About Us</h3> <p>The Portland Metro Chapter of the Data Administration Management Association is a not-for-profit, vendor independent, professional association dedicated to advancing the concepts and practices of enterprise information and data resource management.</p> <p>Our primary purpose is to promote the understanding, development and practice of managing data, information and knowledge resources as key enterprise assets. We generally have our chapter Meetings on the 3rd Thursday of the month.</p> <h3>Upcoming DAMA PDX Metro Events</h3> <p>•July: "Advanced Data Visualization" with Amit P.
