☕ What is the geocomputing coffee about?
The geocomputing coffee aims at an informal get-together with people interested in – or curious about – the geocomputing thematic. The idea is to provide a relaxed venue to exchange and learn about computational-related topics and share your latest advances or discuss technical issues.
Find most of the material presented during the geocomputing coffee on GitHub https://github.com/Unil-SGC/geocomputing-coffee.
🎉 Welcome
As a first get-together, the goal of this meeting is to:
- (Re)-introduce briefly the Swiss Geocomputing Centre (SGC)
- Website https://unil-sgc.github.io
- GitHub organisation https://github.com/Unil-SGC
- Discord chat server
- Introduce the activities we plan to offer within the SGC geocomputing coffee
- Provide a hands-on about version control and reproducible science using good-practices and tools for software carpentry.
💻 Hands-on
During this first meeting, we will also cover the following technical topics:
- demo about the basics of using git, GitHub, and Julia
- syncing local and remote repos using git
- running interactively on
CurnaglGPU node
What's next?
Stay tuned (joining the SGC Discord server) about future geocomputing coffee! We plan to gather bi-weekly most probably on Thursday, 10h30 - 11h30 or 12h15 - 13h15.
