Reproducible Research at EGU GA - A short course recap

At last week’s EGU general assembly members of the o2r and ReproZip projects organized the short course “Reproducible computational research in the publication cycle”. This post is a recap of the course by Daniel Nüst, Vicky Steeves, and Rémi Rampin.

All materials for the course are published in an Open Science Framework repository at https://osf.io/umy6g/ and you can learn about the motivation for the course in the course page at EGU.

The short was divided into two parts:…

Docker for GEOBIA - new article published

We are happy to announce that o2r team member Daniel published a new article together with Christian Knoth in the journal Remote Sensing. The special issue “Advances in Object-Based Image Analysis—Linking with Computer Vision and Machine Learning” comprising six papers was published in connection with the 6th GEOBIA conference (2016), where Daniel and Christian’s work was previously honoured with the best student paper award.

The article Reproducibility and Practical Adoption of GEOBIA with Open-Source Software in Docker Containers is available as Open Access: doi:10.3390/rs9030290

o2r @ Open Science Conference 2017, Berlin

Due to the overall topic of our project, we felt the Open Science Conference (#osc2017) taking place this week in Berlin would be a great chance to share our ideas and meet like-minded folks. We were happy about the notification that our poster was accepted and even made it into the top ten (of altogether 57 submissions), which allowed o2r team member Markus to give a three-minute lightning talk and present a project poster. Both days included interesting talks given by international speakers (see full programme) and in this post Markus reports on the trip.…
