Training Block A: Web-Based Data Visualization Tools: No coding required!

Data visualization tools that are quick and easy to use, require no coding skills, and can be used with any type of sensor are in high demand. In addition to visualizing their own data, users often wish to compare the data they collect with other data sources such as nearby instruments that measure the same pollutants, wind measurements, satellite remote sensing data, or atmospheric model outputs. This training will cover a few free web-based tools to do just that! Participants to this training do not need any prior coding experience, but should have proficiency using internet web browsers and understand basic concepts in data analysis and statistics (correlation, time series analysis, averaging over specific subsets of data, etc.). Participants should also plan to bring their own WiFi-enabled laptop, or plan to share with a friend.

Training Block B: Hands-on with data (coding workshop)

Bring your laptop! This workshop will provide hands-on training for R and python users who wish to up their data analysis and data visualization skills. Participants will learn how to use open source R packages/python modules that can access data, perform analyses and create attractive data visualizations. To make the best use of limited time, attendees are highly encouraged to install all required packages/modules in advance of the workshop.
