The Challenge: automate the extraction of key words and features from historical mining journals and maps with a focus on helping to locate future mineral deposits in Cornwall. \nJoin the session to hear Cornish Lithium explain the opportunities and challenges surrounding mining lithium in Cornwall\, a more detailed introduction to the data challenge covering the importance of historical information and how it is currently being used to model the subsurface to target lithium enriched geothermal waters. The paper in question is the journal in which it was first documented that lithium was found to be issuing out of permeable structures. Also a broader scientific understanding of Cornish geology to inform the development of data processing for identifying potentially rich and useful deposits will be given. \nThere will be time for questions and discussion after the presentation of the challenge. \nAfter this session you can work in a group\, or individually\, and present your findings at a follow up event. \n—- \nData Challenge Cornwall \nThe idea for Data Challenge Cornwall emerged after it became clear that businesses\, entrepreneurs and individuals with expertise and enthusiasm weren’t aware of the open challenges in key sectors in Cornwall – and therefore couldn’t participate in solving them. \nThe benefits of participating include: \n* Opportunities – Joining a challenge gives you the chance to showcase your expertise and your business. \n* Learning – Data challenges are an excellent way to learn new and develop existing data science skills. \n* Make Friends – Thee Data Challenge series is an opportunity to make friends with others who share your interest in data\, technology and Cornwall’s leading industries. \n—- \nPractical Stuff \nAll events are free to attend. \nAll events are suitable for a general audience that has an interest and some knowledge of data analysis and tools. Students are as welcome as professionals.

It looks complex. Terminology can be impenetrable. Tutorials never explain how to use Docker during development. \nIt need not be this way. This course demonstrates the core concepts and explains how to integrate Docker into new or existing development projects. You will quickly learn what Docker can do\, how it works\, and best-practice techniques for your team. \n \nDay 1 outline: \nWhat is Docker? \nQuick start example. \nDocker terminology and concepts. \nInstalling Docker on Windows\, macOS and Linux. \nStarting\, stopping\, and restarting applications. \nConnecting to running applications. \nDefining volumes and networks. \nCleaning up installations. \nUsing Docker Compose to manage multiple applications. \n \nDay 2 outline: \nCreate Docker-powered WordPress development environment. \nCreate your own web application with live code editing and debugging. \nAn introduction to image repositories\, orchestration\, and further resources. \n \nWho is this course for? \nDevelopers\, DevOps professionals\, and IT managers who want to improve their application development and deployment processes. The course specifically refers to web technologies\, but the concepts can be applied to any stack. \nWhat you will need \nYou should have a modern PC running a recent edition of Windows 10\, macOS\, or Linux (ideally a Debian/Ubuntu distro). Instructions for installing Docker will be provided prior to the course\, but further assistance will be available during the day. \nThe course will demonstrate example projects using HTML\, CSS\, JavaScript\, PHP\, Node.js\, Apache\, NGINX\, MySQL\, MongoDB\, WordPress\, etc. You do not need experience of that software\, but a basic understanding of web technology concepts will be useful: \nweb browsers and client-side HTML\, CSS\, and JavaScript \nweb servers and language runtimes (e.g. Node.js\, PHP\, Python\, Ruby\, .NET\, etc.) \nother dependencies\, such as databases (e.g. PostgreSQL\, MongoDB\, SQL Server etc.) \nThe course will be delivered online using Zoom so a stable internet connection is required. \nWhat will you get? \nYou will receive: \nA full day of Docker training (split over two sessions) \nVideos of recorded Zoom sessions for playback after the event \nCourse handouts \nSample code \nA certificate of attendance. \nWhat can Docker do for you? \nDocker can revolutionise the development and deployment of your software projects: \nInstall project dependencies in minutes \nDocker can install\, configure\, and manage all the software your project requires\, including web servers\, language runtimes\, frameworks\, databases\, and more. \nDependencies are lightweight and isolated \nOther than disk space\, your PC is not changed. Multiple or legacy versions of the same software can be run concurrently without conflicts\, e.g. MySQL 5 and 8. Dependencies can be started\, stopped\, removed\, or reinstalled at any time. \nApplications become portable \nYour project and its dependencies can be distributed to other development machines and production servers. It will work identically\, even if some software is not natively supported on that OS. Docker ends those “but it works on my PC” complications! \nContinue to use your existing OS\, tools\, and workflows \nDevelopers can continue to use their preferred software. It does not matter whether they are using Windows\, macOS\, Linux\, specific IDEs\, or other tools. Docker provides all the benefits of local development and debugging. \nDeployments become faster and more robust \nDocker can scale your application according to demand and keep it running if instances fail. \nAbout Craig Buckler \nCraig is a freelance web consultant\, speaker\, writer\, and trainer with more than twenty years in the industry.
