Scope

The course will introduce the user to the range of data products that are produced by PBO, describe how the data sets are prepared and show users how to access the data products and retrieve the associated metadata. The course will also introduce users to the software tools developed to handle the various data sets.

Participation

Participants are encouraged to bring laptops for a hands-on tutorial on how to use the PBO web site and software tools to identify and manipulate data sets, including GPS time series and velocities, time series of strainmeter data, seismic data, and more. Registration.
