For speakers

Each linked session title opens a dedicated Quarto page that can be edited independently by the speaker or instructor. Use the assigned page for the abstract, speaker bio, tutorial instructions, images, slides, notebooks, datasets, and any workshop preparation notes.

Keep session pages in workshops/2026/, place shared images in images/, and use relative links so the pages continue to work when the site is rendered into docs/.

Venue

Location: Geological Survey of Finland, Auditorium, Vuorimiehentie 5, 02151 Espoo Format: Hybrid, with in-person and online participation.
