"UC Santa Cruz’s Center for Coastal Climate Resilience (CCCR) and the University of California Disaster Resilience Network (UCDRN) are partnering with EY on its 2024 Open Science Data Challenge, focused on coastal resilience. The EY challenge allows early-career professionals and university students to use data, artificial intelligence, and technology to help build a sustainable future for society and the planet. This year, EY and UCSC are co-designing the challenge on coastal resilience. Participants will use high-resolution satellite datasets and machine learning to build predictive models to help vulnerable communities adapt to evolving conditions and recover from extreme climate events."
“The University of California produces some of the brightest minds in the country, and I look forward to seeing their creativity shine in this data challenge”
