At this hybrid event on the new Hybrid Stage, we will premiere two short videos introducing the exciting work of Marika Tervahartiala (ARTS) and Kamyar Hasanzadeh (ENG). Both will also host 15-minute presentations where we will learn about opening research data by exploring cases of visual data and geospatial data. At the end, there will be a 15-minute Q&A. After the livestream and the official programme ends at 2 PM, you are welcome to hang around and mingle!

The event is open to all including those outside of Aalto University.
