Geostat 5-DAY training courses
The author of this website regularly organizes (with a group of colleagues: Gerard B.M. Heuvelink, Edzer Pebesma, Victor Olaya Ferrero, Roger Bivand, Olaf Conrad) a 5-days training course entitled "Spatio-temporal data analysis with R + SAGA + Google Earth". The objective of the course is to provide training to junior researchers interested to use R-based tools for analysis of spatially and temporally referenced data. The course is non-commercial, which implies that none of the lecturers is contracted or will receive any financial awards. The course consists of a balanced combination of theoretical and practical training and includes a one-day workshop where each participant can present their case studies and receive a valuable feedback.

The GEOSTAT 2011 summer school was held in IES Koblenz-Landau, Germany.
