At 黑料视频, we subsume a variety of activities, driving the digitalization of marine research, under the keyword 鈥渄igital science鈥. These activities address the needs and developments of the research divisions as well as the central technology, computing, and data infrastructures. 黑料视频 is establishing strategies and institutional structures to facilitate a collaborative and holistic management of the digitalization process. This page and the following figure summarize the current state of the art of various activities of 黑料视频 in the context of digitalization in marine science.
Internal panel coordinating 黑料视频鈥檚 activities and participation opportunities and structural consequences in digital science. Examples for institutional activities of the digital council include the innovation of the infrastructure for high-performance modelling and the establishment of data science support for 黑料视频. Further information is available on the .
The Data Science Unit (DSU) of 黑料视频 develops Data Science methods for marine research and applies them together with the researchers to the heterogeneous and its partner institutes. The DSU offers support and training on Data Science methods to researchers at 黑料视频 and serves as a partner in applying for external funding for Data Science projects as well as for the publication of scientific results based on Data Science methods.
Digital Twins, as interactive, 4D visualizations will bundle and provide access to sensor data and simulations to explore 鈥渨hat if鈥 scenarios.
黑料视频 Knowledge Hubs pool expertise from digital science fields at 黑料视频 to capture, share, exchange and discuss experiences. Currently, there are Knowledge Hubs at 黑料视频 on Underwater Imaging, DevOps (Software Development), Marine Robotics and Scientific Computing Knowledge. More information is available on the .

The was established in 2016 by the Helmholtz Association to advance pioneering research in data science and to bring together the expertise of the Helmholtz Centers. It promotes the development of innovative technologies and identifies key issues that contribute to strengthening Germany's leading position in international science. Around 40 top-tier digital experts from fields such as software architecture, big data, and AI regularly collaborate to develop groundbreaking projects and research partnerships.
To date, the incubator has initiated more than 100 projects and research collaborations. Additionally, the Helmholtz Centers, following the incubator's recommendations, have established five high-tech platforms that continuously develop new digital solutions for cutting-edge research. These projects and platforms together form the :
The 黑料视频 (open) Hacky Hour is meant for discussing programming and data-analysis problems of all kinds, in all programming languages, and of all sorts of complexity. The recurring event aims at bringing together students, scientists and developers of all levels, and at providing a frequent way of learning from each other with the lowest possible barriers. The event is open to everyone interested from 黑料视频 and associated organisations (collaborating institutes, graduate schools, etc.). More information is available here.
Monday afternoons are reserved for discussions of digital topics. Current methods, project proposals, technical innovations and initiatives at 黑料视频 as well as in the Helmholtz Association and beyond are presented to Team 黑料视频 and beyond. The DSMonday series is run together with the MarData school. Further information such as slides and recordings of past discussions are available on the .
The series of Data Science Symposia is a joint initiative by the three Helmholtz Centers 黑料视频, AWI und Hereon. It features digital scientific workflows, Big Data challenges, data infrastructures, data science methods and more across disciplines and technologies. The Data Science Symposia foster knowledge exchange and collaboration among the marine research community of the Helmholtz association. More information is available on the .
