© 2017 ACM. The hackathon is intended to be a practical hands-on workshop involving participants from academia and commercial organizations with both technical and practitioner expertise. It will consider the outstanding challenge of visualizations which are effective for the intended audience: informing action, not likely to be misinterpreted, and embodying contextual appropriacy, etc. It will surface particular issues as workshop challenges and explore responses to these challenges as visualizations resting upon interoperability standards and API-oriented open architectures
