AUBER is the Association for University Business and Economic Research, a professional organization for economic research centers at leading universities and affiliated organizations across America.

I presented a talk on the benefits of streamlining date access using an R Package with cori.data.fcc as an example.

This is a short list of the advantages:

  1. Address Data Challenges

    • Data is packaged as code to simplify data access, reduce errors, and promote collaboration.

    • Low-level data transformations are codified: this makes them easy for others to reproduce.

  2. Accelerate Innovation

    • Broadband data is packaged so that researchers can focus on analysis and insights, not data wrangling.

  3. Unlock Deeper Insights Faster

    • cori.data.fcc provides fast access to granular details, essential for understanding broadband challenges across multiple geographic scales.
