Learn how to wrangle spatial data in R ! Join our workshop on Spatial Data Wrangling with R: A Comprehensive Guide which is a part of our workshops for Ukraine series. 


Here’s some more info: 

Title: Spatial Data Wrangling with R: A Comprehensive Guide

Date: Thursday, April 6th, 18:00 – 20:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone) 

Speaker: Long Nguyen is a PhD student at SOEP RegioHub at Bielefeld University. He likes to make pretty maps.

Description: This workshop is designed to provide a solid foundation for working with spatial data in R. Starting with fundamental concepts of spatial data types and structures, the workshop provides a systematic overview of techniques for manipulating spatial data, such as spatial aggregation, spatial joins, spatial geometry transformations, and distance calculations. With this focus, the workshop’s aim is to give participants a skill set that is easily extendable and transferable to new data and tools. The data wrangling techniques presented will be accompanied by instructions on creating maps – both static and interactive – to quickly explore and present the results of the operations performed.

Minimal registration fee: 20 euro (or 20 USD or 800 UAH)

How can I register?

If you are not personally interested in attending, you can also contribute by sponsoring a participation of a student, who will then be able to participate for free. If you choose to sponsor a student, all proceeds will also go directly to organisations working in Ukraine. You can either sponsor a particular student or you can leave it up to us so that we can allocate the sponsored place to students who have signed up for the waiting list.

How can I sponsor a student?

If you are a university student and cannot afford the registration fee, you can also sign up for the waiting list here. (Note that you are not guaranteed to participate by signing up for the waiting list as only those students who are sponsored can participate). Since the number of sponsored places is usually lower than the number of people signing up for the waitlist, we ask you to sign up via the regular registration process to ensure your participation if you can.

You can also find more information about this workshop series,  a schedule of our future workshops as well as a list of our past workshops which you can get the recordings & materials here.

Looking forward to seeing you during the workshop!
