Coseismic rupture is commonly preceded by stable fault slip, which may accelerate into dynamic rupture as the slip front reaches critical velocities. However, the physical conditions that govern this nucleation process remain poorly constrained.Classical theoretical frameworks typically neglect

Why keep our maps in our computers when we can easily share them?We often represent the result of our analyses as geospatial data in maps. These are usually stored as project files or documents on our computers and, when shared, are often distributed only as static images or tables embedded in

This seminar will explore how to use raster data (e.g. ortophotos, DTMs), and vector data (e.g. thematic polygons), in both OGC protocols (WMS, WMTS, WFS, WCS) and REST services. We'll also see how REST services can be used in geoprocessing workflows or to download selected datasets for offline use.
