Ah, the exhilarations and pitfalls of romance. What insights, wisdom – or humor – can you share on love and dating with a SAS® Viya chart, graph or dashboard? Through Thurs., Feb. 29, we’re inviting you to showcase your creativity by posting your creation on this forum for everyone to admire.

If you already use SAS Viya, you may have an open-source data set on a romantic topic that interests you. No? Then download this data set on speed dating. New to SAS Viya? Use the speed-dating data set provided in the free SAS Viya Trial.

Choose a topic

No matter your level of expertise in data visualizations, come join us for an exciting challenge to showcase your creativity and prowess in visual storytelling!

Do you have any memorable dating experiences you'd like to share through the lens of visual storytelling? Or you're interested in delving into the analysis of speed dating survey data? Whether you're picturing your dating experiences in a fun way or creating a beautiful tribute to Valentine's Day, the possibilities are endless.

Show off your skills and craft the most creative Valentine's Day content using your data visualization skills!

Existing SAS Viya users...

If you have a SAS Viya installation you can already get started. Upload your own data set or download this dating data set from GitHub.

New to SAS but not a student...

If you are new to SAS, sign up for a free SAS Viya trial.
Start playing with the speed-dating data included in the trial, or upload your own data set.

For students...

Go to SAS Skill Builder for Students and access SAS Viya for Learners under Free Software to start your creation.
Read this community article, "Back to School Part 1: Using Your Own Data in SAS Viya," to upload your own data sets or to use the dating data set from GitHub.

How to post your creation

Time to create your visualization! For inspiration, type "valentine" in the SAS Support Community search bar to see what other SAS users have created in the past. @ChrisHemedinger highlighted a number of examples in a blog post. This greeting-card post by @FalkoSchulz is another nice example of what's possible.

Register as a SAS Support Community member if you haven’t already.
Sign in and navigate to the Valentine's Day Data Viz Challenge forum. In the right sidebar, you'll find resources to help you get started with SAS Visual Analytics.
Click “Start A Topic” in the upper-right corner of the Valentine's Day Data Viz Challenge forum.

What's next?

On Thurs., Feb. 29, we'll invite SAS Support Community members to check "like" on their favorite visualizations. This isn't an official contest, but we'll do something fun to highlight some of the more popular submissions.

Next step: marriage proposal?

Just like finding the right insights in your data, finding that perfect match can be a truly satisfying experience. Who knows? Your next post could involve using SAS software to propose to your love…like this fellow did. 😉
