  • SC2 Workshop Series: QGIS – Visualizing Geospatial Data

    Modern Languages Building (MLB), Room 2001A

    QGIS is a user friendly Open Source Geographic Information System (GIS). You can visualize, manage, edit, analyze data, and compose printable maps. The workshop will use R. This workshop is part of the Scientific Computing Student Club’s (SC2) 2020 Visualization Challenge. It is the second workshop in the series. Learn more about the workshop series and the Visualization […]

  • SC2 Workshop Series: Data Processing and Visualizations with R and Python

    Modern Languages Building (MLB), Room 2001A

    This workshop will provide some tools, tips, and packages that make data processing and visualization in R easier. Some coding experience is required – not necessarily R. Instructor: Dr. Michael Clark, Consultant, Consulting for Statistics, Computing and Analytic Research (CSCAR) Space is limited. Learn more and register here.
