Dear R-sig-geo,
Registrations for the two upcoming 5-day training courses are now open:
---------------------------------------------------------------
"Hands-on Global Soil Information Facilities", 22-26 April 2013,
Wageningen University
The purpose of the Spring School is to introduce participants to
software for soil data analysis and visualisation, digital soil mapping
and soil-web services. The focus is on using the Free and Open Source
Software for statistical and geographical computing for soil analysis
and mapping: R (the main programming environment), SAGA GIS, Python and
Google Earth. Upon completing the course, participants will be able to
use the software and data sets for generating soil GIS layers following
the international standards (e.g. GlobalSoilMap specifications) and for
land use planning.
Registration deadline: 20th of January 2013.

"GEOSTAT Quebec City 2013", 26 May - 1 of June, 2013, Quebec City
The GEOSTAT Quebec city 2013 summer school is 8th in a series of summer
schools organized by R and OS GIS developers and enthusiasts. GEOSTAT
aims at PhD students and R-sig-geo enthusiasts in a range of
environmental and GIS sciences, with a special focus on analyzing
spatio-temporal gridded data in R and connected OS GIS software. The
participants will learn how to import and organize space-time data i.e.
time series of rasters and how to program statistical and geographical
analysis using a combination of R and OS GIS functionality. The school
will be hosted at the Faculty of Forestry, Geomatics and Geography, on
the campus of Laval University, a few kilometers from the heart of
Quebec City, Canada.
Registration deadline: 1st of February 2013.
