[GRASS-stats] Fwd: Summer School "Geocomputation"
Dear colleagues, In view of enlarging the computation skills in the geographic domain, as every year, we are running the International Summer School " *Geocomputation using free and Open Source Software*" organized by Spatial Ecology (www.spatial-ecology.net) held at the University of Basilicata, in the magnificent town Matera <https://www.google.com/maps/place/75100+Matera,+Province+of+Matera,+Italy/@40.6646012,16.5651092,13z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x13477ee2482b152b:0x8f6a4ae10da9360!8m2!3d40.666379!4d16.6043199> , Italy. This is a wonderful opportunity for PhD students and Post-Doc to achieve computation skills process and be able to work in Linux supercomputer in a clever way. Please forward this opportunity to your network. Sincerely, Giuseppe Amatulli *Geocomputation using free and Open Source Software** (1st-5th June 2020)* A 5 days intense experience opening new horizons on the use of the vast potentials of *Linux* environment and the command line approach for *geo-data* massive processing using Bash, AWK, Python, GRASS, QGIS, GDAL/OGR, R, PKTOOLS. We will guide newcomers and experienced GIS users who have never used a command line terminal to a stage which will allow them to understand and apply very advanced open source data processing routines. Our focus is to enhance a self-learning approach and programming-languages integration. This allows participants to keep on progressing and improving their skills in a continuously evolving technological environment.

Our focus is to enhance the approach of self-learning allowing participants to keep on progressing and updating their skills in a continuously evolving technological environment.* ** *- Hands-on Open Source Drone Mapping and High Performance Computing for Big Geo-Data **(13th-17th June 2016)* *Another 5 day immersion experience on advanced data processing using high performance computers (HPC) and emerging technologies such as drone mapping, rasdaman (Fastest Array Database on Earth) and cloud computing. We provide a walk-through journey from the introduction of Linux operating system and different open source software (Python, GRASS, GDAL/OGR, R, PKtools, Openforis) to capturing data out in the field using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, to complex image processing and data analyses. We focus on how maximising computation performance using multicore on single computer, switching to distributed clusters of computers (using grid engine scheduler) and ultimately data analytics with cutting edge rasdaman software (Big Data Analytics Server).* More information and registrations: www.spatial-ecology.net/upcoming-events https://www.facebook.com/spatialecology <http://www.spatial-ecology.net/upcoming-events>> see events i...@spatial-ecology.net -- Giuseppe Amatulli, Ph.D. Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University.

[GRASS-stats] SPATIO-TEMPORAL ANALYSIS AND BIG DATA PROCESSING USING FREE AND OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE
HI, Apologies for cross-posting: Summer school organized by www.spatial-ecology.net: *SPATIO-TEMPORAL ANALYSIS AND BIG DATA PROCESSING USING FREE AND OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE *(basic and advanced levels) Over the last few decades there has been an explosion in the availability of data for environmental research, and in particular for spatio-temporal analysis. We are now able to address a number of important questions, both new and old, with unprecedented rigor and generality. Leveraging these exciting new data streams requires tools and increasingly complex workflows. This 6-day course introduces a set of free and open source software (GRASS, R, Python, AWK, BASH, GDAL) to perform spatio-temporal analysis and modelling of environmental data in a Linux environment. We also introduce multi-core, cloud and cluster computation procedures. The course consists of a set of lectures and practical hands-on sessions in which participants perform spatial and temporal analysis using Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing concepts. Although courses focuses on the command line instead of the graphical user interface, no prior experience with programming or command line interfaces is assumed or required. To cater to students with prior programming experience, we will hold parallel sessions that introduce more advanced material. Our main focus is on teaching self learning and problem solving more than the use of specific tools (see: our teaching method http://www.spatial-ecology.net/giuseppe/publications/Amatulli_et_al_OGRS.pdf) so participants will be able to progress and adapt to learn the newest available data science techniques. *Location: 15-20 June 2015 - Matera - Italy* More info at www.spatial-ecology.net:Staff Dr. Giuseppe Amatulli (Yale University, USA http://sbsc.yale.edu/giuseppe-amatulli ; www.spatial-ecology.net) Dr. Stefano Casalegno (University of Exeter, UK http://www.exeter.ac.uk/esi/people/casalegno/ ; www.spatial-ecology.net) Dr. Pieter Kempeneers (VITO https://vito.be/en/land-use ; pktools http://pktools.nongnu.org/html/index.html) Dr. Daniel McInerney ( Coillte Teoranta http://www.coillte.ie) -- Giuseppe Amatulli, Ph.D. Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Yale University.
