OpenRefine

Candice McGowan

Do you have a lot of messy text data? Does it have a lot of spelling mistakes or variations? OpenRefine, a free, open-source tool can help you clean your data. In this introductory workshop, we will cover what OpenRefine is, when it’s useful (as well as when it’s challenging to use), and how to do some basic data cleaning using OpenRefine on a demo dataset. Bring your laptop so that you can follow along!
