I’m the Team Leader for Fisheries Ecosystems Advisory Services Data at the Marine Institute in Ireland.
I have a huge interest in making better use of fisheries data, and seeing what tools can be built to make it more widely available. I co-chaired the ICES Data and Visualisation Hackthon (WKINVITED) last year and that produced some really interesting outputs that are now being further developed. I think this format can be a great way of getting different people to work together, particularly in creating a forum where programmers and scientists can work together.
This event is organised by the EMODnet Secretariat, in collaboration with VLIZ, Copernicus Marine and ICES, and with the contribution of imec and Marine@UGent. Supported by the European Commission and VLIZ.
