Github and NGS APIs

September 9, 2021  |  2:00-3:00 pm, ET

Presenters: Krishna Tadepalli, Sri Reddy, NGS

This webinar provides an overview of the GitHub platform, how to access the software hosted on GitHub, and how to contribute to the software through enhancements. NGS uses the Github platform to make NGS software available to the public and help promote collaboration. 

APIs allow users to consume NGS data and tools in their environment and integrate these into their tools and products. NGS has produced APIs for several of its products and services, and plans to deprecate software downloads, while offering the same functionality through the Github platform or through APIs. 

This webinar also provides an overview of the NOAA big data platform, what’s available there, and how to access it.
