The 60^thKGS Annual Seminar is May 20^th!

Our theme this year is "Big Earth Data: Forging A New Future." Data is the foundation of science and as science grows, so does data. Knowing how to manage, share, and use large collections of data provides the pathway to future breakthroughs.

Join us virtually on Thursday, May 20th from 11:40 AM to 5 PM, as we explore this topic of Big Earth Data with speakers, including the annual Haney Lecture, a virtual poster session, and time for discussion and networking.
