[Cyverse.Nappn] CyVerse Phenomics webinar this Friday

[Eric Lyons]

Dear NAPPN,

I was wondering if you could share this webinar with your email list:

PhytoOracle: Leveraging CyVerse, Container Technology, and Open-Source Tools for Phenomic Data Processing

Calling all researchers who want to learn how to access and use high-throughput (HT) phenotyping data! In this webinar, team members from PhytoOracle, a scalable, distributed workflow manager for analyzing HT phenotyping data, will share their insights on the workflows they are developing using RGB, infrared, fluorescence, and 3D-scanner sensors.

Originally designed to process sensor data from the University of Arizona’s Gantry (the world’s largest outdoor phenotyping platform), PhytoOracle can be adapted to work on data from other platforms as it uses a master-worker framework for distributed computing (HPC, Cloud, etc.) and can run jobs in nearly all Unix-like environments.

Please join us for some early wisdom from the PhytoOracle team – it will spark your interest and curiosity into how you can leverage these tools for your own research.

For more background on the sensor data for which PhytoOracle is being developed, view our earlier webinar on TERRA-REF.

What You'll Learn
Leveraging container technology for reproducible science

The benefits of distributed workflows

How and why scientists and graduate students are writing open-source code

These skills are not just useful – the reality of modern research is that scientists in all fields need these skills to use the computational resources required to analyze their datasets.

User Experience Level
Basic to Intermediate (command-line experience helpful)

Thanks in advance,
-eric
