Set-up
Earth Data Login
To get data from NASA Earth Data, you will need to register and get a username and password. Register here: https://urs.earthdata.nasa.gov/
Jupyter Hub
If you want to follow along with our tutorials during the workshop on our workshop Jupyter Hub https://workshop.nmfs-openscapes.2i2c.cloud/ then
- If you are NOAA, click here (NOAA only) for instructions and to get the password (NOAA access only)
- If you are not-NOAA, we will give the password to the workshop Jupyter Hub out at the start of the workshop.
Do I need to use the Jupyter Hub? No. You can run the tutorials in Colab, Binder, Codespaces, another Jupyter Hub or download and run on your own computer. Or you can just listen!
Getting the tutorials
Once in the Jupyter Hub, you can open a terminal with File > New > Terminal. Then type this on the command line:
cd ~
git clone https://github.com/nmfs-opensci/EDMW-2H-tutorials-2025Alternatively, go to a tutorial in https://nmfs-opensci.github.io/EDMW-EarthData-Workshop-2025/ and there are buttons to open the tutorial in different places.
We will be using a JupyterHub for the workshop but you can run the tutorials in Colab, Binder or on your own computer.
