By WiNoDa, NFDI4ING, NFDI4Objects & DKZ.2R: DataLad Workshop and Hackathon
This event takes place in English
Organizing decentrally stored data requires more than just a good overview and discipline. The right tool plays a crucial role in successful data management and productive collaboration in research teams. One such tool is DataLad, whose powerful features make it much easier to manage, version and distribute large amounts of data and promote the reproducibility of research processes. To help researchers use DataLad efficiently and deepen their knowledge, the data competence centers DKZ.2R, WiNoDa and the NFDI consortia NFDI4ING and NFDI4Objects are organizing a three-day workshop. From June 30 to July 2, there will be many opportunities to try out practice-oriented content and intensive collaboration with DataLad at the IT Center of RWTH Aachen University.
The first day of the workshop is dedicated to the basics and an introduction to the subject matter. Starting with a compact introduction to Git, the basic concepts and functions of DataLad will then be explained. On the second day, the focus will be on practice: in a “hackathon” session, participants will work in teams on their own projects or use cases. At the end of the workshop, the teams will present their results, providing a comprehensive overview of the various application areas of datalad and stimulating valuable discussions.
The workshop is aimed specifically at FDM experts who want to expand their skills in the field of data management and act as contact persons (“multipliers”) for DataLad in their teams and institutions in the future. Basic knowledge of Git is helpful, but not a prerequisite for participation.
If you are interested, please contact info@dkz2r.de.
The participation for this event is free of charge.
Up to 5 people from each organizing institution can take part in the workshop.
