***********************************
>From 25-30 August 2008 the research school ICG organizes a five-day course >targeted at PhD students, academic staff and project teams working with spatio-temporal data. The course aims at providing a balanced combination of theoretical and hands-on-software training. The participants will receive many practical instructions on how to generate R scripts and use SAGA GIS / Google Earth to visualize outputs of analysis. All these packages are available as open-source software or as freeware. After completing the course, the course participants are expected to obtain sufficient knowledge to independently produce R scripts, perform various analyzes and generate outputs that can be directly distributed to the end-users.
