About Event

Veditum & India Sand Watch are hosting our sixth data sprint, Madhya Pradesh Data Sprint. This is the first of many sprints we are going to conduct with a focus on Madhya Pradesh.

Veditum’s ‘Data Sprints’ aim to bring together communities of open-data enthusiasts, and people concerned about rivers - particularly about the issue of river sand mining, to participate in a collective, day-long, intensive data digitisation effort.

This data is then open, and freely accessible on the India Sand Watch platform for anyone wishing to use it for on-ground action, research, media reports, legal action etc.

The outcome of the sprint is a systematic, structured compilation of data on sand mining locations, news, and survey reports for Madhya Pradesh's rivers - which will serve as a great resource for everyone involved with the issue.

Check out outputs from our past Data Sprints here.
