The session was conducted by Mr Apoorv and Mr Gaurav of the CivicDataLab. The resource persons introduced the participants to various problems with regard to organisation and analysis of raw information in tabular form. They shared various nuggets of techniques which will help in better analysis of data collected and drawing meaningful inferences from the same. They explained the ideas by solving various sample problems.

The session was interactive, with the participants being given the opportunity to solve the sample problems themselves before being introduced with smarter techniques of solving the problems. Valuable insights on the doctrinal aspects of the problems were given by the faculty members present in the workshop making the same more interdisciplinary.
