<div dir="ltr">HI,<br>
we are pleased to announce 2 weeks intensive training in: <br><br><b>SPATIO-TEMPORAL ANALYSIS AND BIG DATA PROCESSING USING FREE AND OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE</b><br>
16-20 December 2013 & 20-24 January 2014 <br>
University of Twente - Enschede - The Netherlands<br><br>
4 ECTS<br>
<br>
Over the few decades there has been an explosion of available data for
environmental spatio-temporal research. This “big data” allows us to
address a number of old and new important questions with unprecedented
rigor and generality. Leveraging these new data streams requires new
tools and increasingly complex workflows.
This 2-week course introduces a set of free and open source software
(GRASS, R, Python, AWK, BASH, GDAL) tools to perform spatio-temporal
analysis and modelling of environmental data under Linux environment. It
consists of a set of lectures and practical sessions where participants
use this software packages to perform typical Geographic Information
System (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) data analysis tasks.
In this course, attention is paid to the use of command line rather than
the graphical user interface. Yet no programming experience is required
to register for this course as basic principles are introduced.<br><p>
