The American Statistical Association (ASA) announced the winners for the Police Data Challenge (PDC), a contest for high school and undergraduate students across North America.

The goal, to demonstrate their statistical and data visualization skills with recommendations for enhanced public safety. The ASA teamed up with the Police Data Initiative, a Police Foundation initiative that promotes the use of open data to encourage joint problem solving, to provide students with data sets from the Baltimore, Cincinnati and Seattle police departments for analysis.

Bethel Park High School students Alaina Cerro, Sean Conroy and Elise Bermudez won in the category of “Best Use of External Data.” They were sponsored by Lee Cristofano, physics teacher at Bethel Park High School.

Each team submitted up to 10 PowerPoint slides to explain their methods, findings, analysis and recommendations in 500 words or less. The judges, made up of statisticians, academics and researchers, based their evaluation on the quality of the narrative and visualization, the analysis, and the recognition of any implicit biases. They also grouped their scores into three categories for overall presentation, visualization and use of external data.
