Planning

Planning service
Yes
How the planning service works
1. Examining needs, to ensure best match of software and plugins to your requirements. 2. Ensuring computational power: estimating the complexity of analysis, and the computing resources required. 3. Training needs: considering the upskilling required and talking directly to staff to understand practicalities. 4. Timeline: putting a timeline in place to get up and running with the OurRagingPlanet internal deployment.

Training

Training service provided
Yes
How the training service works
We can provide training in analysis plugin creation, rudimentary Python training targeted at users who are familiar with data analysis (for instance in Excel, or similar) but not Python. We will walk your team through the steps from having a regular data question, such as "where are the most common dog fouling areas" or "where are the likely transport bottlenecks", through automating the analysis, to having a map-based display they can share and re-run for successive datasets.
Training is tied to specific services

Fighting climate change

Our Raging Planet can be used to simulate natural disasters in selected geographical areas to assess how these simulated scenarios would impact the physical and human elements of that area.

Tackling economic inequality

Furthermore, as an open source first company, a key principle of open source is universal access to the underlying technology of any product or service. This is not only important for transparency, but is a key enabler of entry into the industry - open source, being both free and widely relevant, allows underrepresented global communities access to the same software tools, languages and skill development that technology leaders have. By hiring for these skillsets, rather than degrees, skills or certifications in proprietary software that can be exploitatively expensive to obtain, companies using and producing open source create a fairer and more open industry, and by extension improve the inclusivity of the global economy. Open source forms the basis of many social inclusion initiatives, particularly in technology, teaching Python or Javascript (fundamental technologies in our work) to children from underprivileged backgrounds and UN Least Developed Countries. By embedding open source in the way we work, we help ensure there are always pathways into the international technology job market.
