The course tackles the full range of data types, covering the different data acquisition and generation platforms (e.g. observations and models), and including the merging of data of diverse nature (e.g. socio-economic and ecological) including non-scientific and qualitative data (eg resource tracking and mapping, demography, performance statistics, etc).
The course adopts a practical and hands-on approach throughout so that concepts and methods are delivered through examples and real applications, especially those related to the marine and maritime contexts. The delivery of the course is expected to apply a blended approach where students would be offered options with a mix of online and physical delivery. The course is planned in three linked but distinct components (introductory, practical and project phases).
The introductory lectures are being delivered online and spread over a period of two months (October/November 2022); the practical week will be held this year at the University of Cadiz and is scheduled in the last week of November while online practical sessions will be organised separately over a longer period; the project phase will be held later on in March/April 2023.
It is available to non academic institutions.
