About this event
This afternoon workshop will bring together the University's experts in marine and maritime with those from data science and artificial intelligence in order to define the University's key competencies in Digital Maritime and encourage further research collaborations between these groups. There is a small amount of seed funding available which will be awarded to the most promising idea(s) from the Workshop for short-term projects. More information about this will be announced at the Workshop.

Organiser of Digital Maritime Workshop
The Web Science Institute at the University of Southampton was launched in November 2013 to investigate how the World Wide Web is changing the world and the world is changing the Web.
The Web is the largest information system ever constructed. It is a social and technical phenomenon that has transformed the world and continues to do so in innovative and unexpected ways that will shape our future. We can’t predict how the Web will change our society, but Southampton has taken a lead in developing new forms of economic, social, political, technological and cultural resources based on a deep understanding of the Web's technologies and social construction.
The Web Science Institute (WSI) acts as a focal point, co-ordinating and putting into practice education, research and enterprise initiatives on web-related developments at the University of Southampton. Its aim is to secure a sustainable future for inter-disciplinary research across the University that has Web Science at its core.
