A few short years ago, it would be impossible to predict the precise way in which data has evolved, and just how much data we generate today. To say it has increased in the last few years would be an understatement. There has been exponential growth of new data, now commonly referred to as Big Data. Itâs not that big data didnât exist before; itâs just that itâs much, much bigger now, and itâs being generated at much faster rates, thanks to modern technology.
For example, YouTube alone boasts over 1 billion users, 300 hours of video uploaded every minute, and hundreds of millions of hours of video content watched and billions of views generated every single day. And thatâs just one website.
According to IBM, we generate 2.5 quintillion bytes of data every day. We are practically drowning in new data, at every second, and unless something is being done with it, all this data is rendered essentially useless. Since this is a trend that is not going away any time soon, how are we able to deal with it all?
Analyzing the data we generate, particularly online data, is an integral part of how businesses run today. It is important for businesses to understand and analyze information in order to use it to grow their company, and become more efficient with business decisions.
Moreover, because much of the data available today is user generated, with everything from emails and clicks, to tweets and Facebook posts, to uploaded photos and videos, it is all being used to gather information on clients and customers, to figure out their interests and habits, market and advertise to them, for the ultimate goal of generating sales from them.
This is why data visualization software, such as ZoomCharts charts and graphs, has been invaluable in making it easy to analyze, understand, and present data. ZoomCharts tools are completely interactive, support massive data sets, work on all modern devices including touch screens, and perform at incredibly fast speeds, to ensure that you are in total control of your data, and not the other way around.

EFI Planted Forests Facility Summer School, Palencia’18
Organised by iuFOR and EFI's Planted Forest Facility (formerly EFIATLANTIC)

Hosted by iuFOR ( Universidad de Valladolid & INIA) and Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenierías Agrarias, Universidad de Valladolid
Target public:
Graduate students (Masters and PhD) in forest sciences, forest geomatics or data science
Practitioners and IT staff from forest companies, administrations and R&D institutes
Target outcomes:
By the end of the course the participants will have a comprehensive overview of forest data management and analysis including relevant R skills to develop forest models at stand and tree levels and a foundation on cloud simulation of forest systems.
Rationale:
Forest management is facing different challenges due to the magnitude of the current environmental problems (climate change, invasive species, biodiversity crisis, etc.) and the growing demand for goods and services by the society.
Furthermore, the current Knowledge Society paradigm requires professionals to integrate different skills into their specific domain effectively; for example, the management of big databases, including analysis, modeling and decision making.
Although there are some local initiatives such as the DataForest MSc programme at University of Valladolid this specific type of education and training in data management and analysis is not available to forest managers and forest scientists. In general personnel involved in forest management and its environs have a good working knowledge of forest management systems and methods.
However this knowledge could be further enhanced by skills in other complimentary fields, such as database management, computer programming, data analysis, decision making through operational research techniques, geographic information systems and remote sensing.

Take big data exploration to the next level with combination charts from ZoomCharts.
Explore the intricacies of social networks and glean data otherwise incomprehensible with a stunningly vibrant, visual, fully customizable, and completely interactive and intuitive network chart, time chart, and pie chart combination.
ZoomChartsâ interactive drill down feature means that you can instantly and easily dive deeper into massive data sets with just a simple click of your mouse or tap of your finger.
For example, a click or tap on Juliaâs image in the network chart, and a pie chart is generated, showing which social networks Julia uses, and the percentage of the frequency of each.
We can see that Julia uses the instant messaging mobile app WhatsApp quite a bit, and the social networking giant Facebook very little.
When clicking on a social network, we can see how often Julia posts about particular topics. For example, she is very interested in marriage and television, and much less about weight.
Clicking on a particular topic pulls up a time chart that reveals the topics Julia posts about filtered by various time intervals.
To go back and explore other social network stats, simply click or tap Juliaâs picture.
With ZoomCharts, you can work with data charts on any device. Use more traditional devices such as desktops and laptops, or take your data with you to go on any modern mobile device, including touchscreen enabled devices such as tablets and phones.
The unmatched high speed performance of ZoomCharts tools means that every click you make results in instantaneous updates and changes, so thereâs no waiting around for data to load.
