About This hackathon
Join us for Rhode Island Tides, a groundbreaking hackathon focusing on leveraging technology to address critical challenges in marine science and the blue economy. Participants will utilize real-world oceanographic datasets, including sensor data, satellite imagery, and ecological models, to develop innovative software, hardware, or data visualization tools. This event aims to foster collaboration among developers, data scientists, engineers, and environmental enthusiasts to create solutions for issues like coastal resilience, sustainable fisheries, and pollution monitoring. Prizes will be awarded for the most impactful and creative projects that contribute to a healthier ocean and a thriving marine industry.
