Workflows and procedures change over time often resulting in data that are far from perfect. OpenRefine is an open source power tool designed for working with messy data. You will come out of this workshop with a familiarity of the use cases and core features of the OpenRefine software, and how to apply OpenRefine to your workflows for data collection, harmonization, reformatting, and more.

OpenRefine is a cross-platform application that runs in your favorite web browser. Please install OpenRefine on your personal computer prior to this workshop. Download OpenRefine here: http://openrefine.org/download.html

Data files will be accessible the day of the workshop.
