MID-TERM WEBINARS

/CODING PHASE

In these two sessions on the 17th and 25th of July, our selected teams presented their projects and their statuses so far. Whether you're already familiar with Code for Earth or are just learning about it, these webinars are perfect for anyone looking to learn more about what kind of projects our teams are working on. 

About Code for Earth

Code for Earth is an innovation programme run by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF). Its aim is to drive innovation and open source developments in the Earth sciences community - supporting developments in weather, atmosphere, and climate, Copernicus and Destination Earth (DestinE). Learn more about ECMWF, Copernicus and DestinE.


Since 2018, each summer, selected developer teams work together with experienced mentors from ECMWF and partner organisations on innovative projects. These projects are related to the broad scope of activities at ECMWF, including data science, weather, climate or other earth sciences, visualisation and more.

Code for Earth is expanding!

This year we welcomed four new Challenge Partners, each bringing unique expertise and perspectives to our programme. 

Our new partners are: CESOC/University Bonn, European Environment Agency (EEA), Helmoltz Zentrum Hereon, University of Reading
