Metallica 60,000 sold-out show in Tartu & Data Science

In July 2019, Tartu hosted the world-famous #Metallica concert with more than 60,000 visitors. The city decided to seize the opportunity and collect all kind of data around this event. At the Data Science Seminar, organised by the Institute of Computer Science of the University of Tartu, we discussed why and how different data was collected, what are the preliminary findings of the analysis, and what is the broader concept behind Smart City Tartu.
This event was supported by the University of Tartu #ASTRA project PER ASPERA Doctoral School of Information and Communication Technologies.
