Geospatial Challenge Camp 2026 

The Challenge Camp runs over 13 weeks and includes three onsite events:

• Kick-off: 2 days, 12–13 February 2026, at the City Center Campus, University of Helsinki
  • Day 1: Porthania Building, P674 (Thursday 12th)
  • Day 2: Main Building, Studium 1 (Friday 13th)
• Midterm seminar: 25 March 2026, Turku or Helsinki (location to be confirmed)
• Final event: 11 May 2026, Porthania Building, PIII, at the City Center Campus, University of Helsinki

In addition to the onsite events, participants will have weekly 2-hour online sessions, starting once groups have been formed and begin working on their challenges. These online sessions provide guidance, feedback, and collaboration opportunities, complementing the independent work required throughout the course.

Note: Weeks with onsite events do not have online meetings, and there will be a couple of fully independent weeks for uninterrupted group work. More detailed schedule will be announced closer to the beginning of the challenge camp.
