+
+
+# General Data Hacking and Programming References {#general-data-hacking-and-programming-references}
+## The basics of being a data scientist
+
+* Have a hypothesis � even if you’re making a tool/api that helps people with their questions too, remember what the objective of that is.
+* Find the people and tools you need to prove/show/find. This rest of this page will help with the latter.
+* Analyse and present results � were they what you expected? Do they help explain to others what you have found out? Can present as a interactive data visualisation or a web/mobile application or just a infographic/motion graphics video that tells a story.
+Please note, there are a combination of Analysis and Visualisation tools in each of the major categories below.
+
+

+Illustration from Data Journalism Handbook, CC BY-SA 3.0</dd>
+
+
+The best high level reference is the �Understanding Data� and �Delivering Data� chapters of the Data Journalism Handbook which is available online for free at
+
+[datajournalismhandbook.org](http://datajournalismhandbook.org/)
+
+You can learn the technical skills from scratch in Visualize This: The FlowingData Guide to Design, Visualization, and Statistics by Nathan Yau or for more advanced
+
+practical advice check out Data Analysis with Open Source Tools by Philipp K. Janert

+
+**Statistics**
+
+[http://greenteapress.com/thinkstats/html/index.html](http://greenteapress.com/thinkstats/html/index.html)
+
+**Programming**
+
+Programming is valuable skill for manipulating and displaying data.
+
+Basic tutorials for a variety of languages are available for free online or you can learn
+
+interactively with websites like [http://www.codecademy.com/](http://www.codecademy.com/#!/exercises/0\. for JavaScript or [http://www.learnpython.org/ ](http://www.learnpython.org/)or [http://tryruby.org](http://tryruby.org/)
+
+[https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript) –\. especially for web applications and visualisations, you’ll need a basic understanding of JS. Common libraries like prototype or jQuery can help
+
+**Accessibility/User Experience**
+
+WCAG guidelines not only make a web app accessible but make it a better experience for all users! Even if not making an app, good to consider these things to do and not do: [http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/](http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/)

MOB Labs officially launched the new improved buildAR at the Augmented Reality event in Silicon Valley in May 2011.

If you are a GovHack attendee want full access now to play, just sign up for a trial and then forward your GovHack Eventbrite registration email to govhack [at] buildar.com and they’ll set you up for the free month fully activated account within a couple of days.

### PostGIS
[](http://www.govhack.org/wp-content/uploads/postgisexample.jpg)PostGIS is an extension for the PostgreSQL database server that allows you to store and manipulate geospatial data on a large scale. For example finding which points are in an area or what points are closest . It is also very useful for storing geospatial data because it can convert between all major formats including ESRI Shape files and Google Earth/Maps KML.

-**Accessibility/User Experience**
-
-WCAG guidelines not only make a web app accessible but make it a better experience for all users! Even if not making an app, good to consider these things to do and not do: [http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/](http://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG/)
