Arturo Regalado - Deploying your data analytics Python project using Heroku

Description: Tools such as web scraping and data mining are useful to get insights from data, nonetheless, another key part of a project of this nature is how to share all of the generated knowledge with other people. In this talk, Arturo Regalado will talk us through some of the most common issues and tricks needed in order to deploy a dashboard or data analytics project online using a popular framework called Heroku.

Bio: Arturo is a doctoral researcher with the University of Aberdeen and the National Decommissioning Centre. His research interest remains in the study of the economic  effects  of  financial  security  instruments  in  decommissioning  of  oil  and  gas structures. He is an  economist  and  data  analyst  with  five  years  of  experience  in  processing  and interpreting data to give actionable insights to decision makers. His previous experience in the energy sector includes market advisory on oil and natural gas markets with special emphasis in  modelling  energy  demand-supply  outlooks  as  well  as  financial  modelling  of  upstream activity. He has also worked for the Mexican Government in agencies like the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the National Anticorruption System where he developed predictive and machine-learning models to increase evidence-based decision making for the public sector.

A monthly meeting of the Aberdeen Python user community. A talk or two then a practical session of using Python in small teams.

This event is orgnanised by a charity - Code The City. CTC suggests a small donation to help with charity admin costs, but if this is a barrier please just change the ticket price to what you can afford.

We hope to be able to have both a physical and online version of this meet-up. We are waiting to hear from our hosts One Techhub on whether they will be open and what the conditions of attending would be. If you select a physical ticket and it happens that we can not meet physically you will have to attend the Zoom session. If you choose a physical ticket and it goes ahead you will have to comply with any conditions of attendance (eg masks or social distancing) that the venue operators demand at the time.
