The gathering brought together researchers from NASA, the scientific community, and commercial data product developers to explore new ways of collaborating around Earth science data. The event featured panels, poster sessions, and plenty of opportunities for conversation (and coffee). I presented a poster titled \u2018<em>Accelerating Chemical Oceanography with ML<\/em>,\u2019 alongside many others covering topics like AI\/ML applications, cloud platforms and infrastructure, satellite data processing, and emerging technologies. The day wrapped up with talks from <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lorien_Pratt\">Lorien Pratt<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Vint_Cerf\">Vint Cerf<\/a>. Overall, it was a fascinating event and a great chance to connect with others working at the intersection of data science and Earth science.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1705\" style=\"width: 2058px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1705\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1705 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/nirvana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/04\/2024-06-12_fezaqo.jpg\" alt=\"Shot of the National Mall\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/nirvana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/04\/2024-06-12_fezaqo.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/nirvana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/04\/2024-06-12_fezaqo-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/nirvana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/04\/2024-06-12_fezaqo-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/nirvana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/04\/2024-06-12_fezaqo-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www2.whoi.edu\/site\/nirvana\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2025\/04\/2024-06-12_fezaqo-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1705\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Shot of the National Mall taken on my flight in to DC.
