Cosmography Course
This course equips learners with hands-on skills to master cosmography using real astronomical survey data. Participants will map large-scale cosmic structures, convert redshifts to distances with cosmological models, clean and process sky catalogs, build interactive 2D and 3D visualisations, and manage uncertainties and biases effectively. Perfect for physics enthusiasts and professionals seeking reliable tools for robust cosmic mapping and distance estimation.

What will I learn?
Gain practical expertise in cosmography by working with real survey data to map the universe's large-scale structure. Master selecting sky regions, retrieving and cleaning catalogs, correcting for extinction, applying quality cuts, creating 2D and 3D visualisations, estimating distances from redshift using solid cosmological models, identifying clusters, filaments, and voids, and handling uncertainties, biases, and enhancements for future surveys with reproducible methods.
