In this workshop you’ll be using AI and GPUs to run various open weather models, including medium range forecasts, seasonal huge-ensembles, and nowcasting. You will use open-source Python software, Earth2Studio, to quickly set up pipelines that pull initial conditions, configure model runs and generate output in real time. You will learn about the properties of these various models and where they have been used by other developers to create solutions.

This workshop will be framed around an existing self-led course. We will provide access to hosted Jupyter Notebooks, but attendees must bring their own laptops. Attendees can also install the software on their laptop provided they have a compatible GPU. In person experts will provide context and overview, before the workshop progresses through a series of worked examples. Finally, we will provide a self assessment. NVIDIA will publicise the event via their marketing channels to drive further engagement.

Prerequisites:
* Basic familiarity with Python.
* Some familiarity with weather forecasting concepts is beneficial but not required
* Attendees must bring their own laptops. Cloud notebooks will be provided.
