Real-world data can be messy, but clean, consistent data is critical for analysis and visualization. Data transformation can be complex and time-consuming, but luckily, tools exist to make this process quicker and more reproducible! 

In this hands-on virtual session, you will learn the basics of batch cleaning messy data with OpenRefine, an open-source tool designed to efficiently clean and transform data with no programming required! This tool has been approved by University of Rochester IT. Please download and install OpenRefine before the workshop.
