This session occurred on August 24, 2013 at the Annual Training Conference in San Francisco, CA.
Data can be a key part of a regional council’s value proposition. A planner’s ability to find, analyze, and interpret data for multiple audiences can go a long way toward a successful CEDS process and outcome. Participants learned about free, publicly available data tools that planners can use to develop a high quality and high-impact CEDS.
