The ATRIUM Training School in Computational Archaeology is one of the highlights of my summer. When I found out about ATRIUM's Transnational Access Scheme grant, I knew I couldn't let this opportunity slip. But the real hook was the Summer School at the Czech Academy of Sciences in Brno: spatial data analysis, integrated archaeological data, and reproducible coding skills in R.

I've just returned from a visit to Brno, the second largest city in the Czech Republic, to attend a Computational Archaeology Summer School hosted by the Archaeological Information System of the Czech Republic (AIS CR) research infrastructure at the Institute of Archaeology, Czech Academy of Sciences, Brno. This five day training school brought together experts in coding skills, the R programming language, the archaeological data integrated into the ARIADNE research infrastructure, and spatial data analysis.
