This work­shop provides fun­da­mental know­ledge and ne­ces­sary skills to design car­to­graphic data visu­al­iz­a­tions.

In a hands-on ses­sion, we will focus on ana­lyz­ing and visu­al­iz­ing bike-shar­ing rides in Katowice in small pro­ject groups. The City of Katowice provides data from its bike-shar­ing net­work to be used in the work­shop.

The work­shop is open to people from vari­ous pro­fes­sional back­grounds (e.g., design, data sci­ence, soft­ware en­gin­eer­ing, urban de­vel­op­ment, or geo­graphy). Par­ti­cipants can have but do not need ex­per­i­ence with visu­al­iz­a­tion, car­to­graphy, cod­ing, or spe­cific soft­ware.

The work­shop will be held in Eng­lish. Par­ti­cipants should bring a com­puter to work with dur­ing the work­shop. We will com­mu­nic­ate ad­di­tional re­quire­ments (e.g., soft­ware to be in­stalled) and fur­ther de­tails be­fore the event.
