Training courses and workshops on sea level measurement and interpretation have been held at least annually since 1983 covering tide gauge installation, maintenance and operation; data reduction of sea level observations; geodetic fixing of tide gauge benchmarks; uses of sea level data in scientific analysis and practical coastal applications; and data exchange. Since 1993, the emphasis has been given to the training in computer-based data analysis within HOTS (Hands On Training Sessions), and to the application of the results to studies of regional and local processes and for practical purposes.
