QGreenland curates Greenland-focused data ready for research and analysis. The QGreenland data package represents only a small portion of available data, much of which requires specialized skills to handle. The goal of this workshop is to equip researchers with the necessary skills to evaluate data quality, standards-compliance, and develop best practices for open-science geospatial workflows which enable use with QGreenland.

Participants will work in small groups to engage in discussion on open-science practices and tools like JupyterLab and GitHub, work through several data-based exercises focused on gaining first-hand experience making data ready for analysis, and develop practices for collaboration.

This workshop is aimed primarily at graduate level or higher researchers interested in answering questions about Greenland using geospatial data. Basic knowledge of QGIS and experience using QGreenland are assumed.

Deadline to apply is 3 April 2023. Decisions will be made the week of 10 April 2023.
