Predicting Australian Wildfires with Weather Data, a Call for Code Spot Challenge

April 5, 2021 11:00 am EST

Join this workshop to learn about the results of the Wildfires Spot Challenge, where data scientists came together to develop models focused on forecasting wildfires in Australia for the upcoming wildfire season. Understand the data sets being used, see technical overviews from 3 teams, and a get a summary comparison of modeling approaches. You will also learn about students who are using this challenge as part of their university program, and how you can also get involved!
