Day 4: Thursday – WIS2 Node implementation

The fourth day will focusing on how to consume data on WIS2, how to setup a WIS2 Node and how GISC Moscow supports WIS2 Operations. 

The morning sessions cover explore data discovery and subscription workflows, learning how to find, access, and download datasets as end-users. Following this we will look at WIS2 Node implementation fundamentals, including networking, security, maintenance, and the registration process with WMO’s global infrastructure.
