UW eScience Geohackweek

Anthony Arendt, eScience Institute

In 2016 the UW eScience Institute hosted its first Geohackweek. The event offered participants training in open-source geospatial software, experience in collaborative project design, and opportunities for networking with academic and industry partners. This talk will review what we learned from our first event, and generate discussions for how to design future hackathons to serve the GIS community.
