RAMADDA Hackathon
The Long Hot Summer of 2012 - An Experiment in Science Collaboration[edit | edit source]
Come one, come all, to experiment with science collaboration using the RAMADDA tool
We'll be collecting data, information and other resources related to the "hot" topics this summer, including:
- the derecho of June 29
- the fires in Colorado in June and July
- the drought in Kansas
- the heat waves of May / June / July (take your pick!)
- socio-economic impacts (agriculture, water resources, ...)
When???[edit | edit source]
ESIP 2012 Summer session Earth Science Collaboratory Hackathon on Friday, July 20 @ 8:30am-10:00am
