    NASA International Space Apps Challenge 2018 in Tartu
    (Geograafia Osakond, Tartu Ülikool, 2018-11-29) Kmoch, Alexander
    The Department of Geography, the Institute of Computer Science and the Tartu Observatory jointly organised and hosted a 48h hackathon event as part of the 2018 International NASA SpaceApps Challenge. This global event happened on the weekend 19.-21. October 2018 at more than 200 locations, 75 countries, world-wide over the course of the weekend, with Tartu as the only Estonian location. The main goal was to provide a safe platform for motivated students from various backgrounds to work together on real problems in a hackathon event, while at the same time learning the benefits of interdisciplinary work, combined team work with different skills. The second goal was to foster networking between the research institutes and the geospatial industry in Tartu, and expose students to the field of geospatial and Earth Observation (EO) applications.
