Researcher community developments

SoDa Laboratories is associated with Monash University's Department of Economics and Department of Econometrics, within the Monash Business School. We exist to discover social science insights from alternative data.

"We are data-source agnostic, with expertise and interest in alternative data in all shapes and forms including satellite imagery, digitised textual sources, internet activity and latency, search terms and trends, social media, news, and more. We couple a large appetite for rapidly emerging sources of new data with a pan-empirical toolset that ranges from causal empirical methodologies to the latest data science and machine learning approaches."
