The #OpenDataHack2018 @ECMWF is a hackathon weekend event on 9/10 June 2018 for developers, designers, data wranglers, data journalists, data enthusiasts, entrepreneurial minds and everyone interested in unleashing their creativity with freely available climate data.

The goal of the hackathon is to discover the potential of open climate data and to come up with innovative ideas how Copernicus data at ECMWF can be used:                                           

• to develop data-enhancing tools and services for climate monitoring (Hack-Vis and Hack-Data challenges),
• to develop web applications for policy- and decision-makers (Hack-Vis challenges),
• to create value-added services for specific public and commercial needs (Hack-Data challenge), or
• to effectively communicate environmental or societal challenges to the public with the help of climate data (Hack-Out challenges)

Large volumes and a high variety of climate data will be made available.
