The Talk

This would be a high-level overview on what we do (provide a software system for data exploration and visual analytics), and what area of interest we address (Crisis prevention).

We learn about the situation in the Sahel and how to understand it using Clojure. Why is Clojure such a good choice for data analytics? How do we create abstractions on data providers or machine learning frameworks in order to fit our product to a given environment.
