EGU 2013 Abstract Submission Deadline Approaching
Visualization is an increasingly important activity for understanding complex geoscience data, and for communicating results to a variety of audiences. As a result, the European Geoscience Union (EGU) conference has, in recent years, begun holding sessions dedicated to scientific visualization. For the 2013 EGU conference, to be held in Vienna, Austria from 7-12 April, 2013, this offering is being expanded into a full sub-programme titled Visualization for scientific discovery and communication.
The abstract submission deadline for the conference is January 9th, 2013.
Join the Discussion on Proposed NetCDF Uncertainty Conventions
Scientific data formats such as NetCDF have made great strides in areas like interoperability, scalability, and data compression. By comparison, methods for representing the uncertainty inherent in the values stored in scientific data sets are less robust. A group organized by researchers from the National Research Council of Italy's Institute for Atmospheric Pollution Research is trying to address this issue by creating a set of conventions for the representation of uncertainty values associated with data stored in NetCDF files.
