TEI Hackathon: Report by Nick Laiacona

**Working Group Project: **

I worked on the ODD Visualizer project.

Contribution to Group Project:

I adapted the D3 Tree View to work with the data model we developed to characterize the changes to a schema prescribed by a given ODD.

Methodology:

We made use of D3.js, underscore.js, Git Hub, Google Docs. Links to Git repo and our working document are on the TEI Hackathon Wiki page.

**Conclusions: **

**(i): **Deliverable(s)

We produced a working D3 visualization (http://tei.it.ox.ac.uk/Hackathon/odd/visualizer/index.html) and source code for it which is found on GitHub.

**(ii): **Findings

For me, I didn’t have a specific research question that was addressed by this activity, but nevertheless it was quite worthwhile.

(iii): *Learning Outcomes *

I think it was very useful to learn more about ODD structure and capabilities from the experts.
