Data Help Desk at 2021 GSA Annual Meeting

October 11th-13th, 2021 ONLINE

 

The Virtual Data Help Desk being held in conjunction with GSA 2021 Connects is a program of EarthCube, the GSA Geoinformatics & Data Science Division, and ESIP, and will connect researchers with data and software experts to enhance research and make data and software more open and FAIR. Follow the action on Twitter & view the gallery of resources below.

Notebooks

A novel element of the 2020 and 2021 EarthCube Annual Meetings was a call for notebooks, which led to over 30 peer-reviewed Jupyter notebooks that encompass an array of geoscience data tools, software, services, and libraries. Each notebook was reviewed by scholars within the geoscience and cyberinfrastructure community. Recent contributions can be accessed below.
