This online workshop is for ICES stock assessors only and provides an introduction, demonstrations, and exercises in producing ICES Transparent Assessment Framework (TAF) assessment outputs and working within the GitHub environment. It is aimed at people working with stock assessment models who need guidance to run the models through TAF.
Objective
The workshop will help stock assessors in the ICES community to use Git repositories for stock assessment. They will learn about the different tools available to add data, run their models and learn how to publish a successful assessment to Stock Assessment Graphs (SAG) by using the icesTAF R package.
Practicalities
There are two workshop dates to choose from this autumn: 10-11 October and 28-29 November. The workshops are organised on Microsoft Teams and consist of online sessions and intercessional exercises. All live sessions take place in European office hours (Copenhagen, CEST/CET).
Level
Participants should be familiar with the R environment.
