I'm a scientist (mainly with climate-related subjects) who has been writing code for research and
outreach for many years. I am interested in numerical modeling and visualizations that help
make sense of the world in beautiful ways.
Why I want to win
===================================
I have an idea about how to create more beautiful and interactive visualizations of global climate fields
(like temperature, or pressure, or vorticity, or ... ) and I want to bring that idea into production for a large audience
so they can see for themselves how the global climate has behaved ... and that they can play with the data to draw their
own conclusions from them.
Skills
==============
javascript | HTML5 | SVG | sed/awk/shell scripts etc | Monte Carlo methods | large climate datasets | visualizations | differential equations | statistics
The idea
=======
I'm going to tackle the climate question...by developing a better way to present public datasetes from
NOAA and NASA.
