Important update related to the Covid-19 situation
We are officially announcing that due to global pandemic of COVID-19 we have decided to host the TechTDE User Workshop as a half-day, online-only meeting on 24 June 2020. Please regularly check for updates on this website. If you have any questions, then contact us by E-Mail. Thank you for your understanding and we look forward to virtually meeting during the online TechTIDE User Workshop.
Best wishes, and stay safe,
TechTIDE Consortium.
Workshop description
The aim of the User Workshop is to inform prospective users about the mid- and long-term outcomes of the TechTIDE project and to find a common ground for the future exploitation of the results. Representatives from different areas of the space weather community: science, services and industry, will have a unique possibility to express their interest in the specific scientific areas explored within the project. The collected feedback from the workshop will help to prioritise the designed project products and operational modes, taking into account the interest of the space weather community.
TechTIDE User Workshop program
A zoom invitation is distributed to all confirmed participants. The zoom meeting will open 30 min before the online workshop start time (i.e. at 12.30 UTC), to allow participants establish their connection.
