First steps into the Internet of Things

The Internet of Things has exploded in popularity despite much of the underlying technology already being well established. In this talk we will briefly describe the key facets of an IoT solution and their relevance to the data science community. Appetite for tinkering whetted, we will then give a practical demonstration of the open source NodeRed rapid prototyping tool and IBM's Watson IoT connectivity platform - everything you need to get started with your own IoT project.

Connecting with the Bikes of London

Continuing with the IoT theme, this talk is about the bikes of London and getting data from the internet-connected bike stations around the city. Eric Hannell is running a project that streams data from all the bikes stations in the city (roughly 700 updates/min). Eric will talk about how it was set up, what we can learn from it and give some examples of interesting findings in the data. The talk touches on python, tableau, docker, bigquery and some spark.
