[Esip-cloud] Pangeo session at ESIP Winter Meeting

[Jeff de La Beaujardiere]

I am seeking additional speakers for the session "Pangeo in Action"
during the ESIP Winter Meeting next January. Please respond off-list
directly to me if you are interested in participating. The session is
90 minutes, currently scheduled for Wed Jan 8 11:00-12:30.

Session abstract:

The NSF-funded Pangeo project (http://pangeo.io/) is a
community-driven architectural framework for big data geoscience. A
typical Pangeo software stack leverages Python open-development
libraries including elements such as Jupyter Notebooks for interactive
data analysis, Intake catalogs to provide a higher level of
abstraction, Dask for scalable, parallelized data access, and Xarray
for working with labeled multi-dimensional arrays of data, and can
support data formats including NetCDF as well the cloud-optimized Zarr
format for chunked, compressed, N-dimensional arrays. This session
seeks presentations describing implementations, results, or lessons
learned from using these tools, and invites attendance by people
interested in knowing more about Pangeo.
