This technical platform allows researchers to use coding (e.g. Pyspark) to manipulate these big datasets into new formats to explore innovative questions. This talk will describe the platform and how to request access for time-bound non-commercial research projects.
Answering the most pressing challenges researchers and research managers face, with innovative solutions that improve an institution's and individual's ability to establish, execute and evaluate research strategy and performance.…
