Workshop: Making Maps with Open Data and Open Source Software – R and QGIS
Dr. Anja Eggert, Research Institute for Farm Animal Biology (FBN)
We will explore the quickest ways to access and visualize geospatial marine data from open repositories using R. With a focus on showing how geospatial data can be integrated in a familiar tidyverse data-analysis workflow, we will demonstrate how R can be used for making maps. However, while R is powerful for data processing, QGIS could offer more intuitive mapping capabilities. The choice of tools is yours! We will use real-world examples from Baltic Sea environmental and fisheries data, and you will have the option to participate in hands-on exercises. This workshop is designed for R users at a basic level or those curious about what R can do, particularly in incorporating spatial data into their everyday workflows. Advanced GIS topics will not be covered.

Demo: Foundation Models – Repositories, APIs and Fine-Tuning
JProf. Stefan Lüdtke, University of Rostock, Institut Visual and Analytic Computing, Marine Data Science
The availability of large pre-trained models (e.g., large language models, but also large pre-trained models for images or environmental data) leads to a paradigm change in machine learning: Instead of training new models from scratch for each task, researches can now re-use and fine-tune large pre-trained models, often reducing the need for training data and providing impressive results. In this tutorial, I will show how the HuggingFace model repository and the transformers library for Python can be easily used to run and fine-tune foundation models. I will also briefly discuss ramifications for geospatial modeling and emerging climate foundation models.
