Washington Convention Center, Washington D.C., United States +* **Repository:** TBA +* **AGU Session info:** TBA +* **Application Portal:** https://www.agu.org/annual-meeting/attend#register + +This workshop aims to provide a detailed technical demonstration of GMT/PyGMT's +capabilities in creating maps and visualizations of geospatial, geophysical, and +planetary data across a wide range of applications. PyGMT, a Python library built on top +of the Generic Mapping Tools (GMT), offers an intuitive and accessible interface for +generating high-quality figures suitable for publication. Suitable for both beginner and +advanced Python users, this workshop will cover advanced techniques for manipulating +geospatial and geophysical data, widely utilized in the Earth, Ocean and Planetary +Science communities, providing participants with the necessary skills to extract +meaningful insights and effectively communicate their findings through clear and +informative maps and visualizations. By exploring GMT/PyGMT's functionalities, +participants will have the opportunity to learn how to create customized maps and data +visualizations tailored to the specific needs of their research areas. + +We invite students and researchers from the Earth, Ocean, and Planetary sciences +community to join. The focus of this workshop is to develop skills on using free and +open source software, coding, data manipulation and visualization. Learn to produce +publication-ready figures, especially geographic maps, using PyGMT including the +integration with the PyData ecosystem. + .. raw:: html
