  1. Global View Project University of Oxford: Dr Nick Jones and Dr Umer Ijaz Durham University: Prof Graham Towl Leeds Met University: Dr Elizabeth Guest and Samantha Dixon

  2. Aims of the Project • Scope a dash-board that gives policy makers an integrated view of the state of the UK, both at the current time, and into the past. • If policy makers have a better view of the UK, they can ensure it is more resilient to shocks. • Initially work with three types of inputs: • Changing signals (e.g. oil prices, house prices, temperature...) • Key word searches from the internet • Analysis of tweets to extract meaningful information to provide context for other signals

  3. Progress to Date • GlobalView Software • Extraction & analysis of: • Google Trends Datasets √ • Yahoo Financial Stream • MetOffice Meteorological datasets √ • Twitter feeds • Other statistics • Visualisation Tool • Time Series √ • Various Network Layouts √ • World Map/Spatial Layout for Meteorological datasets

  4. Meta-data from Google/Twitter gives streaming context

  5. How might this help? • Gives an Overview: Given a set of favourite variables it could suggest what they might be influenced by... ...and how those influences are changing. • Forecasting: Some modest forecasting and association. Might help indicate the effect of intervention. • Early warnings: Detect peculiarities at the level of key variables and also at the level of the relationships between those variables.

  8. Questions for you: • What signals would you like us to include? • Do you have any ideas as to how we could obtain these signals? • What key-words and phrases (top twenty) are most important to you? • Who else that you know might be interested in this tool? • Is there a particular form of visualization, or functionality, that you would like us to include?
