We are pleased to announce the upcoming open HESCOR Vision Forum Session, which will take place over two days from March 9th to 10th at the University of Cologne. The Vision Forum is designed to begin dialogue about the HESCOR database’s future after the HESCOR project is done. We are calling upon all researchers interested in integrating data across the Earth and Human systems to discuss potential methods and funding schema to better integrate data across fields in the future.
If you would like to participate, please contact the organizer directly via email.
