GoldSim Webinars
We offer free, monthly webinars to present GoldSim features and applications. Upcoming webinars are listed below. If you would like to be placed on our Webinar Mailing List to be reminded every month of the upcoming webinar, contact us.
All webinars are recorded (and posted to the site within a day or two), and these provide an excellent resource for learning about GoldSim features and applications.
Materials and video recordings of past webinars are available on our Webinar Archive Page.
Next Webinar: Handling Missing Data in Time Series Records
Presented by: Jason Lillywhite
In real-world datasets, like rainfall, streamflow, temperature, or pumping rates, missing data points are a common problem. When important observations are missing—especially during critical events like rainstorms—the gaps in our data can lead to misleading results, especially if unintended interpolations introduce false continuity.
In this webinar, we’ll explore practical methods for addressing missing data in ways that help preserve the integrity of your model. I’ll demonstrate two key approaches using precipitation time series data:
- Simple Interpolation Techniques: See how best practices for the Time Series element can be applied to manage gaps without introducing artificial continuity.
- Stochastic Imputation: Discover how a stochastic model-based imputation can intelligently fill in missing values, informed by historical patterns.
Presentation Times:
19 November 2024 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM PST
21 November 2024 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM PST
