future of web analytics - the view from the pitch
DESCRIPTION
Asked to talk about how Sport uses data at the Future of Web Analytics meet in June 2014, this abridged version of the presentation shows - the basic web analytics often used in sports business - some of the mid-level analytical techniques that Seven League is bringing into play, including a section of our analysis comparing the social media usage of the Ashes, the British GP, Wimbledon and the Lions tour - how sport uses data in a performance-analysis context (much of this is missing due to copyright) and - my view of how the future of data and datavisualisation will lead us in the direction of Datatainment. For further thoughts, questions or discussion, find us on @7League, [email protected] or on our blog at www.sevenleague.co.ukTRANSCRIPT
