This event is completed. Read the summary, “People, structure, mechanics: How we led the earthaccess December 15 Hackday online and in New Orleans”.

Join us for our earthaccess hackday in New Orleans and online! This hackday is independent of AGU2025 but conveniently co-located for attendees. Registration is free. Please sign up by November 19, end of day in your time zone. We will send confirmations by November 25.

earthaccess is a Python library that enables authentication, search, and access for NASA Earth science data with just a few lines of code. We see great potential for “growing the family” by integrating with other Earth science data beyond NASA, including NOAA, USGS, Copernicus, and others!

At this hackday, our goal is to have a workable “growing the family” prototype and roadmap. Please join us if you are interested – there are many ways to contribute and incorporate your ideas and expertise. A hackday to our earthaccess community means we will be collaboratively problem-solving and strategizing around “growing the family”, and translating ideas into code and documentation.
