Webinar 8: CEOS Jupyter Notebooks Day – Supporting Global Best Practice and Training
Time/Date Friday 21st October, 2022, 14:00 – 21:00 UTC
Location: Virtual Zoom meeting
The CEOS Working Group on Capacity Building and Data Democracy and the Working Group on Information Systems and Services ran a joint webinar on Jupyter Notebooks for Capacity Development. The aim of this webinar was to introduce space agencies and environmental organisations worldwide to Jupyter Notebooks and take a tour of emerging services from CEOS Agencies and their applications. We illustrated how Jupyter Notebooks can be used to support capacity development and the exploitation of Earth Observation data by a broad range of users.
We surveyed the registrants of the event and the responded with 2 key requirements
- The development of a Jupyter Notebooks Best Practice
- Jupyter Notebooks based training
This event is working meeting to facilitate solutions to those needs

Technology Exploration Purpose
The purpose of the Technology Exploration Interest Group is to serve as a forum for exchange of technical information and lessons-learned experience about current and trending software technologies, services and other WWW / Internet related softwaretechnologies.
The primary goals of the Technology Exploration Interest Group are to:
- Give CEOS/WGISS members opportunities to collaborate and discuss present and future technology solutions;
- Research technologies that can help the Earth observation community be flexible and adaptable in their IT infrastructure;
- Help facilitate CEOS/WGISS understanding of all generations of technology and support the implementation of both legacy and leading-edge technologies into Earth observation data systems;
- Promote technologies in CEOS/WGISS that prove beneficial to the Earth observation community.
