Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Information

In 2008 the Obama Administration started a movement when it committed to work towards new levels of openness in government by making the federal government’s information more accessible and transparent to the public at large. That undertaking shows no sign of slowing as States, counties, and cities in the U.S. have instituted an unprecedented level of transparency of public data. According to www.data.gov/open-gov/, currently 40 U.S. States, 46 U.S. Cities & Counties, 45 foreign countries, and 163 International Regions now have open Data sites. What started as a crusade focusing on government transparency as an end in itself however became a realization to some in business that all of that juicy Big Data stored in those previously elusive databases was a gold mine of potentially useful information. When properly sifted and sorted, that data could yield new insights, trends, and patterns to industry, especially the environmental conservation & restoration industry. That’s why the EcoBlu Analyst team created the revolutionary cloud-based Big Data efficiency tool: Ecosystem experts need a way to make smarter, more fact-based decisions in a just a fraction of the time.
