Tech Talk | Exploring Police Fatal Force with SQL Analytics

Join us for a tech talk with Chengyin Eng, Brooke Wenig, and Can Efeoglu as they demonstrate how to develop queries, visualizations, and dashboards on the new SQL Analytics workspace. They will be using a fatal police shootings dataset compiled by the Washington Post (https://github.com/washingtonpost/data-police-shootings) to create interactive dashboards, allowing users to filter by specific states and years. Their analyses include national trends, ranging from body camera coverage to mental illness to demographic breakdown. Join this tech talk to hear more about their findings and learn how to create these dashboards using SQL Analytics.

This tech talk is based on the blog they published: https://databricks.com/blog/2020/11/16/fatal-force-exploring-police-shootings-with-sql-analytics.html

They will be covering the queries from these notebooks on GitHub: https://github.com/databricks/tech-talks/tree/master/2020-12-10%200%7C%20Fatal%20Force:%20Exploring%20Police%20Shootings%20with%20SQL%20Analytics
