Each month, the Grenoble R-group organizes one working session of 2 hours, on Thursdays, from 16h-18h, at the IMAG building.

Everyone is welcome from beginners to advanced R users. Participants just need to bring their laptop. Presentations or tutorials will last 30 to 60 min, on R topics that can be useful to many people, with practical examples. During the second part of the session, specific problems encountered by participants when coding in R will be discussed.

Drinks and snacks will be shared during the second part of the session.

The aim of this session is to give a basic overview on how to work with spatial data with R.
The session will briefly cover :
  1. Spatial data types
  2. Main packages for spatial data handling
  3. Basic computations on spatial data
  4. Plotting spatial data with R
Then, we will shortly illustrate these points working on data from the Grenoble area.

After the main presentation, in a lightning talk , Simon Barthelmé will present his package imager for working with image data.

And then, as always, the second part of the session will be used to socialize, eat some canapés and drink some virgin mojito.
