<p>Dear colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Within the <a href="https://earthmonitor.org/" target="_blank" title="https://earthmonitor.org/">
Open-Earth-Monitor Cyberinfrastructure</a> (OEMC) project, the Institute of Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) organizes a
<b>hackathon/summer school</b>, <a href="https://iiasa.ac.at/events/jun-2024/geo-open-hack-2024-big-geospatial-data-hackathon-with-open-infrastructure-and-tools" target="_blank" title="https://iiasa.ac.at/events/jun-2024/geo-open-hack-2024-big-geospatial-data-hackathon-with-open-infrastructure-and-tools">
GEO-OPEN-HACK 2024</a>, <b>this June</b>, which will be hosted at IIASA in Laxenburg, Austria.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The hackathon is about open geospatial tools, big geospatial data, cloud computing, and machine learning for Earth observation. Each day will start with a keynote speaker, continue with a tutorial, including an example of a big geospatial project, and end
 with practicals where the participants will work on their own geospatial problem(s)/data. The application period is open until 15 March and there is a limit of 25 external participants, so it will be somewhat competitive.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Spread within your networks if you find suitable. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Kind regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
