Making data accessible to all. It’s your data…your story!

• Mission Statement:– Data Resource Center Indicator data sets contain

constructed measures that were developed by CAHMI in collaboration with a national technical advisory panel for the Data Resource Center for Child and Adolescent Health. The purpose of this project is to provide support and technical assistance to states for interpretation and utilization of results of the National Survey of Children’s Health and National Survey of Children with Special Health Care Needs.

• My Note:– Requested the data, but will try to get it myself from the

site.

Conclusions and Recommendations

• The New Digital Government Strategy of treating all content as data has been applied to the CAHMI Web content.

• The CAHMI has been turned into data in spreadsheets and statistical visualizations in Spotfire 5.

• This simplifies the complex CAHMI interface which requires lots of extra mouse clicks and provides no faceted semantic search.

• The CAHMI Data Use Agreement for the Data Resource Center Indicator Data Sets provides for additional data access that will be used to supplement this work.

• This process provides the beginning of a Unified Data Architecture and Ecosystem for Data Integration using the View Data function in Spotfire 5.

Spotfire 5 allows one to filter the data set by Category and Indicator likeChild Weight Status (e.g. Obesity-Low) and Medical Home (Homecare-High).

Additional Slides• Spotfire 5 allows one to filter the Web Site data set by Category and Indicator:

– Demo Example: Child Weight Status (e.g. Obesity-Low) and Medical Home (Homecare-High) which is useful to decision makers.• Spotfire 5 Web Player Dashboard: https://silverspotfire.tibco.com/us/library#/users/bniemann/Public?CAHMI-Spotfire

• The CAHMI Data Use Agreement provided additional data access to two large data sets (and a third in the near future):– Demo Example: Scatter Plots, etc. were difficult to find useful information. My Note: CAHMI is working on improved

data:• Web Site Examples: http://www.wellvisitplanner.org and http://www.yourchildshealthcare.org

• Treemaps are ideal for displaying large amounts of hierarchically structured (tree-structured) data. The space in the visualization is split up into rectangles that are sized and ordered by a quantitative variable.– Demo Example: State as the Hierarchy and BMI (Body Mass Index) Class and Diabetes, and Age and Home Health

were used.• Spotfire 5 Web Player Dashboard: https://silverspotfire.tibco.com/us/library#/users/bniemann/Public?CAHMI-Spotfire• Explanation of Treemaps: http://semanticommunity.info/A_Spotfire_Gallery/Visualizations#Treemap

• The American Diabetes Association and others are working on improved diagnosis and treatment of child (and adult) diabetes using data:– Demo Example: 25.8 million children and adults in the United States—8.3% of the population—have diabetes.

• Web Site Example: http://www.diabetes.org/diabetes-basics/diabetes-statistics/

• My Concept for the Redesigning Data 2013 Data Design Diabetes Innovation Challenge – Prove It!– Through baseline knowledge models, evidence-based practice, or predictive analysis, Prove It! asks innovators to

think creatively about how to effectively harness data to address diabetes in the US.• Web Site Example: http://www.redesigningdata.com/
