Data tales are interactive, visually rich stories designed to promote state-of-the-art research, hard-to-get data, and AURIN’s tools, platforms, and services. They translate complex urban analytics and research outcomes into clear, plain-language narratives supported by maps, data visualisations, and selected code or no-code elements. Created for both researchers and decision-makers, these stories present real use cases, practical outcomes, and opportunities for exploration without requiring deep technical expertise. By focusing on authentic, problem-driven storytelling, data tales increase awareness and uptake of AURIN’s offerings while making advanced analytics more accessible and engaging.
