Subject: [students] Lunch BYTES featuring data access, analysis, and visualization featuring the IRI Climate Library portal

Dear RSMAS,

The next installment of the student led Lunch Bytes student computing seminar will appeal to all who rely on environmental data, basically everybody at RSMAS.

The International Research Institute (IRI) Climate Library featuring the Ingrid data analysis portal provides an incredibly easy and intuitive point and click method to locate, access, analyze, visualize, and download environmental data in numerous formats. Examples of the types of data include sea surface temperatures, vegetation indices, wind speed, precipitation, salinity, chlorophyll, O18, and the list goes on and on and on......

 

If you currently work with computational software to ingest environmental data I would highly recommend attending this session to learn how to drastically reduce your computational work time and increase actual scientific analysis time. This session is also ideal for those who have always wanted to supplement their work with environmental analysis, but are lost on how / where to begin.

 

I have yet to meet one person (in any division) who was not thrilled to use the Ingrid system after learning about it. It does not have to replace your current methods, but it can easily supplement them.

WHEN: Wednesday April 4th, 12pm

WHERE: SA 120

 

(email me if you have any specific data requests that you would like addressed during the seminar)

 

See you next week,

Teddy (MPO)
