Research activities in natural sciences are becoming more and more interdisciplinary and adopting several modern tools and technologies from data science. In this data-driven revolution in fields like natural science, students and researchers, especially those from non-technical backgrounds, often face theoretical and applied challenges. The workshop aims to discuss data science tools and technologies in a lucid language and how these technologies can be used to address some of the most pressing environmental challenges.

Highlights of the workshop:

• Working Principles of Artificial Intelligence
• Basics of machine learning methods (classification, regression, Bayesian)
• Spatial ecology and geographic information system
• Applications of data science technologies in natural sciences
• Hands-on sessions in open-source platforms (R and Q‑GIS)
• Collaborative opportunities
