Presentation Details
We're sure you know about Oxfam, but have you heard of "Aotearoa" (the "Land of the Long White Cloud" otherwise known as New Zealand)? Locus will show how a little bit of FME can go a long way through its charitable involvement with Oxfam New Zealand and its Trailwalker fundraiser. In addition to using FME to help plan the course, Locus tracked the 300 teams by using FME to analyse and locate tweets that are sent during the event. This year we also used FME's report generation capabilities to create a dashboard showing the progress of teams through the checkpoints.
