Prior to the 2015 NCK days icebreaker, OpenEarth.nl organizes a hands-on sprint session to explain how to access and visualize some great open access core-description and grain size datasets of the Dutch coast:
i) Sediment Atlas WaddenZee (RWS): 7500(!) distribution curves in Marsdiep-EmsDollard
ii) TNO 13.000(!) core descriptions for the Dutch continental shelf via NODC/SeaDataNet (and much, much more data available via DINOloket.nl)
iii) TNO interpolated dz10, dz50, dz90 maps with 200m resolution for Dutch Continental Shelf
iv) Along the Dutch beaches, grain sizes for dune safety assessment (RWS)
During this sprint session you’ll learn how to work with these free data in Matlab and/or python. Bring your own laptop to work with the data, and take home your data products and visualizations.
Time: March 18th, 13:30-17:00 (max 10 participants, sponsored by NCK)
