February 2026 Workshop: Innovating Environmental Sensing With Open and Low-cost Hardware (deadline 12 January)

The UK Floods and Droughts Research Infrastructure (FDRI) project (which Imperial is one of a consortium of partners) are hosting a free, hands-on workshop in February (16–17th, Buckinghamshire, Accommodation and travel included) on Open and Low-Cost Hardware for hydrological monitoring.

This two-day event will bring together scientists, technicians, practitioners, and citizen-scientists to build practical skills, test sensors in the field, and explore the future of participatory science.

If you’re interested in…

  • experimenting with open hardware tools
  • sharing new ideas for hydrological sensing
  • strengthening monitoring capacity in the UK
  • joining a growing community of practice

…we’d love to hear from you.

Deadline: 12 January 2026

Places are limited to 20 but don’t worry, we plan run additional workshops if demand is high!
