COAST's Lunch & Learn Volume 3: Visualizing Ocean Data with Jupyter Notebooks
Ever seen a sea sponge swell and contract in sync with changing marine conditions? Wondered how long it takes for a cadaver to decompose in the biodiverse waters of the Pacific Northwest? Heard the intriguing underwater sounds of arctic ice breaking up?
Ocean Networks Canada (ONC) maintains a vast, open-source network of underwater cameras, hydrophones, and sensors that capture the rich and complex life beneath BC’s coastal waters. In this session, Dwight Owens, Impact & Capacity Development Manager at ONC, will walk us through:
🔹 Real examples of data available through ONC
🔹 Where to access ONC data for your own projects
🔹 Using Jupyter Notebooks to visualize this ocean data
Whether you're a seasoned data analyst or just curious about ocean tech, this session will help you improve your data literacy and explore how open-source tools like Jupyter Notebooks can unlock stories from the deep.
This session is hybrid—join us online or in person at the Ocean Innovation Hub (517 Herald Street, Victoria BC) for your monthly dose of knowledge, connection, and inspiration!
