Data ecosystems

[James McKinney-4]

I’ve heard the ecosystem metaphor used occasionally, but the following series of blog posts by the Smart Chicago Collaborative really clarified the concept for me and provided a useful example of describing, evaluating and coordinating work within an “ecosystem."

The Smart Chicago Collaborative also convened the various actors within its ecosystem at a conference whose program serves as a good example, as well: http://www.chicagoschoolofdata.com/conference
