The Centre for Multilevel Modelling at the University of Bristol are hosting our forthcoming Geographically Weighted Modelling Workshop. The two day workshop will run on 23rd and 24th April 2014, and will be lead by Professor Chris Brunsdon, Dr Paul Harris and Martin Charlton. The workshop will be based around our GWmodel R package, and will cover geographically weighted versions of summary statistics, principal components analysis, and regression. Workshop attendees will need some familiarity with basic statistical concepts and techniques. While familiarity with the R statistical and visualisation software will be useful, it is not essential.

Places are limited; registration, which is essential, will close on 1st April 2014. Further details are to be found at the workshop page.
