Ida Lucente

This month is another milestone for John Snow Labs as we forge our partnership with Open Knowledge International, “a global non-profit organization focused on realizing open data’s value to society by helping civil society groups access and use data to take action on social problems”. This vision is strongly in line with John Snow Labs’ mission to provide access to fresh and clean data – now not only to data scientists, but to everyone who has a need and meaningful use for it.

In this month’s release, John Snow Labs’ curated 145 datasets and from this number there are 122 from the Core category. Data content showcases on economy, geography, climate, Internet, health and pharma. These are the core components of every domain that talks about life, health, environment, politics and business, which will help shape every area that matters to human life. These data can be used for NLP in financial services and in other fields.

“Updating the Master Provider Index is a ten-minute process with John Snow Labs. We’ve dramatically accelerated a process that used to be two days of work.” Claudiu Branzan, Principal Software Engineer Atigeo.

“Many people told me the datasets were great and very easy to use. We would love to continue partnering with you for future events!” Jason Yim, HopHacks Organizer
