The Conference on Environmental Information Processing Technologies (EIPT) is organizing a “hackathon” during the 2017 AMS Annual Meeting in Seattle. The hackathon will be hosted by Cray Supercomputing, and is open to anyone interested in “noodling with the data and getting an opportunity to utilize supercomputing time or just work through a problem we’ve posed,” according to the event organizers.

There will be a meet up for participants on Sunday evening the 22nd of January from 5-8pm at Cray Supercomputing (which is close to the Convention Center). For details about the event or to sign up to participate, see the EIPT Hackathon 2017 web site.
