HSOpen Apurahat as a topic map
Helsingin Sanomat, a major Finnish newspaper and media company, arranged an open-data-hackathon with a title HS Open #2 - Follow the Money 23rd of May 2011. HS released two data sets for the event. First data set included money support reports of members of Finnish parliament. Second data set was about grants received by Finnish artists between 2000-2010. Wandora Team participated the hackathon. To contribute the event we created a special importer for Wandora application that converted the data set of artist' grants to a topic map format. As a result, the data set can imported to any topic map application, such as Wandora, for further analysis. After creating the importer, we are ready to publish the topic map transformation of the original data set.
