Data analysis platform

The data analysis platform was created by VLIZ in commission of the VNSC, to facilitate options for researchers and other users to analyze the datasets within ScheldeMonitor. This platform consists of a RStudio environment, a collection of RShiny applications, and a GitHUB organisation with dedicated repositories.

VNSC - Data Archive

Partners of the different Project Working Groups of the VNSC may request access to the online data archive of MDA, where original data files are stored that have been delivered to the ScheldeMonitor. This online archive can be accessed through the following page.

Manuals

ScheldeMonitor provides two manuals to support researchers that make use of this data analysis platform, both for the RStudio server and GitHUB repository. 

While the RStudio manual details how to gain access the server, and connect it with relevant data services of ScheldeMonitor, the GitHUB manual provides rules and guidelines on the best practices of working with git-versioning.

The manuals are written in RMarkdown, and can be accessed below:
