DataFest 2024
The date is set: May 30, 2024. Then the new edition of the DataFest will take place. A DataFest? Indeed, a hackathon, but for data-related challenges. This time, students from the HZ University of Applied Sciences, University College Roosevelt and Scalda will be exploring innovative solutions together to improve mobility in Zeeland. With various data sources regarding incoming and outgoing traffic in the region. The focus is on predicting alternative routes, positioning public transport hubs and understanding complex traffic patterns. The aim is to develop concrete solutions that can improve the mobility and flow of traffic in Zeeland.
