http://www.grandchallenges.org/Explorations/Topics/Pages/SocialDataInteroperability_Round11.aspxThrough this challenge, we’re looking for game-changing ideas we might never imagine on our own and that could revolutionize the field. In particular, we are looking for ideas that might provide new and innovative ways to address the following:
Improving the availability and use of program impact data by bringing together data from multiple organizations operating in the same field and geographical area; Enabling combinations of data through application programming interface (APIs), taxonomy crosswalks, classification systems, middleware, natural language processing, and/or data sharing agreements; Reducing inefficiency for users entering similar information into multiple systems through common web forms, profiles, apps, interfaces, etc.; Creating new value for users trying to pull data from multiple sources; Providing new ways to access and understand more than one data set, for example, through new data visualizations, including mashing up government and other data; Identifying needs and barriers by experimenting with increased interoperability of multiple data sets; Providing ways for people to access information that isn't normally accessible (for using natural language processing to pull and process stories from numerous sources) and combing that information with open data sets.
