NOAA GPU Hackathon 2021

Together with NVIDIA, NOAA will host a virtual GPU Hackathon starting August 23 and concluding September 1, 2021. GPU Hackathons provide exciting opportunities for scientists to accelerate their AI research or HPC codes under the guidance of expert mentors from National Labs, Universities and Industry leaders in a collaborative environment.

The NOAA Hackathon is a multi-day event designed to help teams of three to six developers accelerate their own codes on GPUs using a programming model, or machine learning framework of their choice. Each team is assigned mentors for the duration of the event. This Hackathon is open to all NOAA scientists and their collaborators with the event limited to 10 total teams. Additional Hackathons will be scheduled if there is high interest.
