UCSB Carpentry is offering two R-based workshops, including an introductory R workshop for beginners and a specialized workshop for geospatial techniques in R. You may sign up for both or either free workshop depending on your interest. The geospatial workshop builds on the introductory skills in the first workshop, so if you have not had previous experience with R please sign up for both workshops.

Intro to Geospatial Raster and Vector Data in R
W/Th/F: 5/12-5/14 9:00am-12:00pm

This is a 3 day, example-driven workshop for introduction to using geospatial data in R. R is commonly used to perform spatial analysis and to generate map graphics in many scientific disciplines. This workshop will focus on visualizing the two basic geospatial data types using sample data from NSF NEON. This workshop will move at a quicker pace than our typical Carpentry workshops. Knowledge of R and the Rstudio interface are required.

Prerequisites: Introductory knowledge of working with data in R required. Please attend the May 5-6 Introduction to R workshop, or work through the material on your own if you do not have previous experience with R or need a refresher.
