Next IT&I Tech Dive Webinar: Meet the openEO Team (Oct 13)

openEO is a modern high-level API aiming to define earth observation processing workflows independent from the infrastructure in which they are processed. It is based on the concept of virtual data cubes. A broad ecosystem of open-source client and server implementations has evolved around it.

Join us for the Information Technology and Interoperability (IT&I) Tech Dive Webinar with openEO and the USGS Community for Data Integration (CDI) on Thursday, October 13 at 1 p.m. EDT.
