Want to develop tools to save lives? ECMWF is organising a hackathon on the Global Flood Awareness System (GloFAS) to make the system more flexible and easier to use.
GloFAS provides global forecasts of extreme flood events and is used by international institutes like the Red Cross and World Food Programme as an information tool during crisis.

The hackathon will take place at ECMWF (Reading, UK) on 16/17 January 2016 - get more information under http://www.ecmwf.int/en/hackathon-announcement-global-flood-awareness-system.
