The Workbench for Spatial Data Science

Date: 

Friday, October 15, 2021, 9:00pm to 10:00pm

Location: 

Online

Speaker: Yu Hanchen, Postdoctoral Fellow, Center for Geographical Analysis, Harvard University
Moderator: Guan Weihe, Executive Director, Center for Geographical Analysis, Harvard University

This webinar will introduce the spatial data science workbench based on KNIME workflow software. The workbench integrates data visualization, exploratory data analysis, exploratory spatial data analysis, and a variety of spatial econometric models, providing a repeatable, reproducible, and scalable combined data analysis platform, suitable for those without professional training in spatial analysis. Man performs spatial data analysis. The workbench is easy to learn and use, and can complete multiple spatial data analysis tasks at one time, improving the efficiency of data analysis and scientific research.


This talk will also describe how to join the team that is currently working on the Spatial Data Science Workbench project.
