The Inator Hackathon - London

AIchemy Hub UK

Open

Back by popular demand, the Inator Hackathon returns - this time landing in London! Ready to get hands-on with real-world data? The Inator Hackathon is a in-person, one-day dive into the power of microcontrollers, environmental sensing, and machine learning all through Raspberry Pi. This Hackathon is about demonstrating how simple it is to link metadata and data, and to clean up datasets so they’re fit for use with machine learning using modern methods, hence encouraging uptake and usage. This Hackathon introduces researchers to using simple microprocessors and environmental sensors through the Raspberry Pi, using it to monitor laboratory and experimental conditions. You will construct a simple remote sensor, use it to acquire large datasets and explore how to clean and structure it, tagging it with useful experimental metadata.

Digital Mapping Hackathon

Planning Aid Scotland

Open

A free, interactive workshop for anyone interested in exploring QGIS and digital mapping through practical group exercises. This in-person session will introduce practical digital mapping skills and show how spatial data can support planning and place-based project work. What you will explore Using QGIS, a digital mapping tool for planning and spatial analysis, participants will work with place-based data to explore how maps can help us understand places more clearly. You will look at how different layers of information can be brought together to reveal patterns, opportunities and challenges. Experienced digital mappers are welcome to come along and use their preferred programme. Why digital mapping matters The workshop is not only about learning how to use a mapping tool. It is also about understanding how data can tell different stories depending on what we choose to measure, prioritise and visualise. You will have the chance to test ideas and discuss findings with others. Who should attend This workshop is open to anyone who is interested in developing digital mapping skills. It may be particularly useful for people working in, studying or volunteering around planning, spatial data, place-based projects or community-led planning. You do not need to be a digital mapping expert to take part. The workshop will be friendly, practical and supportive, with opportunities to learn from others and build confidence. CPD The workshop can be counted towards your CPD. Partnership This training is delivered in partnership with Perth and Kinross Council. Questions If you have any questions or comments about the workshop, please get in touch with Jo by emailing volunteer@pas.org.uk
