Workshop on Environmental Informatic Challenges (co-organized)

The current availability of huge databases offers unprecedented opportunities for analyzing and understanding our environment. We are able now to answer questions of great importance for the future of our planet. However, this new possibilities come together with new challenges to solve. At this point, computer science techniques like machine learning algorithms become really valuable. The interdisciplinarity between geosciences and computer sciences needs then for a mutual understanding and comprehension. The overall aim of this workshop is to bring together and stimulate discussions among researchers from various disciplines when dealing with geosciences topics with the help of computer sciences techniques.
