  • OPENSENSE training school on software and methods for processing of data from opportunistic rainfall sensors, Tel Aviv University

    October 10, 2023 - October 12, 2023  
    Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel

    Within the COST Action OPENSENSE (CA 20136) we bring together scientists investigating different opportunistic sensors (OS), experts from weather services, and end-users of rainfall products to build a worldwide reference opportunistic sensing community. We work on defining standards to allow for large-scale benchmarking of OS precipitation products and develop new methods for precipitation retrieval and coordinate the integration of opportunistic observations into traditional monitoring networks.

    Based on the open datasets that we curate and the software tools that we develop, we will organize a three-day training school focused on hands-on exercises to introduce the participants to processing of data from opportunistic rainfall sensors: CML - commercial microwave link, PWS - personal weather station and SML - satellite microwave link.

     

    • Where: The training school will take place at the Campus of Tel Aviv University

    • When: From the 10th to 12th of October 2023 (potentially with an additional excursion on the 13th of October)

    • Who is it for: Young researchers (PhDs, Postdocs, etc) or practitioners (e.g. from meteorological or hydrological services) who actively work with hydrometeorological data

    • Who is eligible: Participants have to be affiliated with a COST Member country or a near-neighboring country (NNC). More details are provided on page 60 of the Annotated rules for COST Actions (https://www.cost.eu/uploads/2022/12/COST-094-21-Annotated-Rules-for-COST-Actions-Level-C-V1.3.pdf )

    • What content will be covered

      • Open datasets of OS rainfall sensors and their newly established standardized data format

      • Software tools for CML, PWS, and SML data processing

      • Methods for quality control and processing of the OS data to go from raw data to derived rainfall data

    • What will the format of the workshop be: We plan two days of hands-on exercises and one day for mini-projects where participants can work on their own ideas and data, or on selected small research questions that we propose.

    • What cost will be covered: OPENSENSE will reimburse all costs for travel, accommodation, and daily allowance.

    How can I apply: We will open the application website in May 2023. Since the number of seats is limited, we will select 20 participants from the applications.
