2nd workshop on open science in aviation 🌷 tangram
We are pleased to announce the 2nd edition of this workshop on 3 and 4 April 2025 in TU Delft 🇳🇱 (The Netherlands), following the success of the 1st workshop on open-source tools for air traffic management and research on mercury open-source tool.
The workshop aims at discussing and sharing experiences in making aviation research more open and accessible.
We will also present a new open-source tool, tangram, which is a modular framework for real-time data analysis and visualization.
