💡 An Electrical Meeting - Hackathon session 💡
The hackathon is now open!
In this interactive hackathon session, we will work on 3 challenges listed below, develop ideas and implement them in small teams.
📢 We believe in research community efforts and value your contribution! Ideas and contributors will be publicly available in the github page.
Challenges
1. How to encourage the emergence of standards in Agrogeophysics?
What kind of initiative(s) would help federate the community and help the emergence of standards? Which metadata are required in such standards? Best way to create them?
2. How to build a library of robust/reusable pedophysical relationships?
3. How to encourage the use of geophysics in interdisciplinary studies?
How can you encourage a non-specialist to use geophysics? Which tools would they need to get familiar enough and see the potential and limitations of geophysics?

Materials 🗂️
📌 Check out our online whiteboard
Steps to contribute:
- Open the the whiteboard
- Write your name and initials
- Add your ideas by sticking post-its
📌 Check out our online app and start playing with pedophysical models
Steps to contribute:
- Check out the videos and readme of the agrogeophysical catalog
- Bring your own dataset or pick one of ours to get your hands dirty on the job.
- Add your ideas by submitting an issue
📌 Catalog showcasing
The Catalog of AgroGeophysical Studies paves the way towards more open science and FAIR data/survey practices. The current weakness is the lack of community formalisation of the metadata.
- Video 1 contribute (publication/notebook submission), Findability (filter) and Reuse (export) of Agrogeophysical knowledges.
- Video 2: highlight your dataset (example with a pedophysical dataset)

Motivations
The use of geophysics for agronomy has rapidly increased in recent years.
However:
- Little attention has been paid to supporting the management of such heterogeneous data.
- There would be significant value gained and costs saved across academic research if geophysical users were to address key challenges to move towards FAIR[1] data management in the near future.
