So You Want To Hack On Rail Data: What's out there, and what can you do with it? (emf2024)
The British rail industry publishes a lot of open data: there's at least 18 distinct data sources, plus the ones I'm forgetting. This'll be a whirlwind tour of most or all of those sources, with a view at helping people who would be interested in playing with train data but don't know where to start. You'll (hopefully) leave with some ideas for what you could build (if you didn't already have some), know what data sources you'd need, and have enough context to understand those sources' documentation. I will assume software experience (ie there'll be slides with JSON, XML, and various less pleasant things) but not rail experience.
