28625823 | 191394 | A new data tool for identifying where people are losing their homes | <p>Millions of Americans are evicted each year, yet it's surprisingly difficult to know who is being evicted, where and why, because local data on evictions is either non-existent or difficult to analyze.

We will demonstrate how to use the tool using data from Eviction Lab's <u><a href="https://evictionlab.org/eviction-tracking/" target="_blank">Eviction Tracking System</a></u> (ETS), which provides regularly-updated eviction filing data for 7 states and 31 cities. <br><br>This class is good for: Intermediate/advanced users.

28625744 | 191394 | AI art creation: From the classroom to the newsroom | <p>When crediting Midjourney for the two illustrations included in a newsletter produced for The Atlantic, Charlie Warzel faced a backlash from Twitter users who thought the publication tried to cut its art budget.

28625806 | 191394 | Building an interactive map in the newsroom: How to bring skills and talent together | <p>Unlike past conflicts, the global public can follow the war in Ukraine in real time. Our interactive map tracks the events of Russia’s invasion since 24th February 2022. It’s updated daily to show recent events, territorial gains and losses, satellite imagery, and the position of Russian troops. By clicking on the events, readers are presented with a more detailed description of the event, as well as images and direct links to sources.<br><br>The map was created by an interdisciplinary team of designers, data journalists, and developers. New information that is added to the map is verified by a team of data journalists and OSINT specialists. Below the map we explain the methodology behind the data and map design. The map is published on the main page of the Swiss daily Neue Zürcher Zeitung, often alongside other articles on the war, and provides readers with both an overview and with detailed, on-the-ground news of what is happening in Ukraine.<br><br>Here’s the German version – and the English version, which is translated by a bot and then checked by translators.<br><br>In this NICAR presentation, I’ll discuss, how we were able to build this interactive map, the tools involved, the sources we used, and how many iterations we have released until now. Most importantly, how the map offers a new way for readers to discover the content – and sell subscriptions. One of the biggest challenges for the future will, of course, be to somehow secure the compatibility of the map with future technologies.</p> | 2023-03-04 16:45:00 | 2023-03-04 17:45:00 | 0 | 1 | SoBro, Meeting Space Level 1 4296414 | 579490|579486 | 179 | [ { "categoryTitle": "Speakers", "links": [ { "title": "Barnaby Skinner", "label": "Neue Z\u00fcrcher Zeitung", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/poi/?id=15476283", "target_object_id": 15476283, "target_content_type": "custom_list.customlistitem" } ] }, { "categoryTitle": "Forms", "links": [ { "title": "NICAR23 Session Evaluation", "label": "Please complete this session evaluation", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/survey/?id=20962&object_id=28625806&content_type=schedule.session", "target_content_type": "survey.survey" } ] } ] |

28625834 | 191394 | DEI in data reporting | <p>With data collection, algorithms and artificial intelligence affecting larger parts of our lives, journalists should become more comfortable with using data for reporting. But how can we do this while keeping diversity and inclusion in mind, and not leaving some groups behind, or emphasizing a status quo that disadvantages historically excluded communities? This session will offer a compilation of existing resources as well as a callout for more: What resources do you know of? What have your experiences been?

The world of crypto often feels opaque and jargony, but Bitcoin, Ethereum and NFTs all work off of public databases, called blockchains–an area ripe for DIY FOIAs, if only journalists knew how. <br><br>Three experienced data journalists will share stories, story ideas, and concrete tips for chasing those stories for mainstream journalists to test their hypotheses and extract publishable facts from the blockchain. Their stories have run the gamut from investigating a widespread life-altering financial fraud dependent on a quirk of the Ethereum network, tracking ransomware, examining potential sanctions violations and possible insider trading.</p> | 2023-03-02 16:45:00 | 2023-03-02 17:45:00 | 0 | 1 | Grand Ballroom 2, Lobby Level 4296419 | On the beat 579483 | 54 | [ { "categoryTitle": "Speakers", "links": [ { "title": "Jeremy Merrill", "label": "The Washington Post", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/poi/?id=15476226", "target_object_id": 15476226, "target_content_type": "custom_list.customlistitem" }, { "title": "Stacy Elliott", "label": "Decrypt", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/poi/?id=15476139", "target_object_id": 15476139, "target_content_type": "custom_list.customlistitem" }, { "title": "Rob Barry", "label": "The Wall Street Journal", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/poi/?id=15476100", "target_object_id": 15476100, "target_content_type": "custom_list.customlistitem" } ] }, { "categoryTitle": "Forms", "links": [ { "title": "NICAR23 Session Evaluation", "label": "Please complete this session evaluation", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/survey/?id=20962&object_id=28625746&content_type=schedule.session", "target_content_type": "survey.survey" } ] } ] |

28625683 | 191394 | How to analyze freely-available real estate data to tell your community's story | <p>The housing market has come to dominate the news lately, as mortgage rates have risen in an attempt to fight inflation, and having the additional effect of cooling off the real estate market after years of meteoric rises in home values. This came after decades of a widespread housing shortage, which had driven up values already, all working together to push home affordability—and in many ways the American Dream—out of reach for many. Making sense of this through data is where we can help. Realtor.com provides free, near-realtime housing market data that can be used to tell this story at any level, from national or statewide trends, down to the real estate dynamics at city or even ZIP code level. In this session, we will show NICAR attendees how to get and use Realtor.com's data, so they can immediately begin producing thorough, data-driven reporting on the housing market. Attendees will be able to take what they learn in this session and generate analyses that use time-series data, supply-and-demand metrics and even pairing Realtor.com's data with Census Bureau data to produce correlations between the housing market and demographics, as well as creating maps that illustrate the data. <br><br>Attendees will need to bring their own laptop (no tablets) to participate in this class.</p> | 2023-03-05 10:15:00 | 2023-03-05 11:15:00 | 0 | 1 | SoBro, Meeting Space Level 1 4296414 | Tools & tech 579486 | 194 | [ { "categoryTitle": "Speakers", "links": [ { "title": "Evan Wyloge", "label": "Realtor.com", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/poi/?id=15476327", "target_object_id": 15476327, "target_content_type": "custom_list.customlistitem" } ] }, { "categoryTitle": "Forms", "links": [ { "title": "NICAR23 Session Evaluation", "label": "Please complete this session evaluation", "image": "", "gb_url": "gb://guide/191394/survey/?id=20962&object_id=28625683&content_type=schedule.session", "target_content_type": "survey.survey" } ] } ] |
