Research organisations and administrations collect large volumes of data to improve knowledge and support public policies. Ocean Hackathon® is an opportunity to explore the great potential of this data to address social, economic and environmental challenges.
Wherever you participate in the world, you will have access to a variety of data sets to help you tacke the challenges and enrich the demonstrators. Organisers, national data providers and local data providers collect data at the small, global and regional scales. Some of the datasets you will have access to are not normally available for free.
During Ocean Hackathon®, data coaches from our data partners, will give you support to find the data and make the best use of it.
Participants are able to search for data, visualise it and access it! The access to the Data Catalogue is open during Ocean Hackathon®.
All data tutorials and available resources are centralized in a private space of the Ocean Hackathon® website that is open during the event.
Data coaches are available on-site and remotely to assist teams. An on-line Data Coach Centre facilitates contact between coaches and participants.
