2026 Data Day: People + Data = Inspired Futures

The Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission will host Data Day on February 10, 2026 at the Center for Workforce Development at Columbus State Community College.

Data Day is an opportunity to learn more about what our region is doing to promote data-driven decision-making, and how various communities are using data, securing and governing data, and visualizing data.

Attendees will be able to walk away from data day with new connections in the Central Ohio data community and have actionable items that they can take back to their communities to improve the ways they're currently using data.

Program Details:

The day will feature keynote speakers and breakout sessions on a range of data-centric topics from methodology and tools to research and data storytelling.

Breakout sessions will be tailored to a range of attendees from data and GIS professionals to heavy data users and decision makers. Presentations will cover a variety of topics of local and regional significance. Breakfast and lunch will be provided during the event. Please be sure to note any dietary restrictions on your registration form.
