Fossilfri by i 2050. Hvordan?
I 2050 skal det ikke brukes olje, kull eller gass til transport eller oppvarming av bygg i Bergen. Det er målet i Bergen kommunes grønne strategi som er ute på høring. Men hvordan skal Bergen bli en fossilfri by? I samarbeid med Klimaforum inviterer vi til frokostmøte. Klimaforum er eit samarbeid mellom Bergen Næringsråd, Bergen kommune og Bjerknessenteret. Møtet er gratis for alle

Nersc seminar: Nansen-Cloud
Speakers: Morten W. Hansen, Anton Korosov.
We introduce a concept called a Scientific Platform as a Service (SPaaS) to aid the management and synergistic use of EO data within the Nansen Group of research centers in Norway, Russia, China, Bangladesh, India, and South Africa. We present a prototype implementation of the SPaaS (the Nansen-Cloud), which handles data from satellite remote sensing but also in-situ and model data. The Nansen-Cloud can be understood as an advanced cloud client providing the integration of scientific tools, algorithms, data stored at various locations, and various data catalogs, via an application programming interface (API). This should allow users to work on their local desktops, using local CPU with integration to cloud systems to analyze the EO data using, e.g., Nansat. In this manner, the SPaaS will allow the users to focus on the scientific research without bothering where the data is stored or its format, nor the maintenance of the infrastructure or the software.
