earthaccess: Five Years of Open Source Science Leadership at NASA
Wednesday July 29, 2026 4:00pm - 5:30pm CDT
Location TBA
Sign-in & Notes
earthaccess is a powerful model for open-source tool sustainability and user-driven development: widely used not only because it solves real user problems, but because it has been intentionally developed openly and amplified via storytelling. This session shares several short stories and includes an open mic: what earthaccess is and its current impact; how the community works via hackdays (ESIP FUNding Friday followup!); open governance (JOSS publication, move to earthaccess-dev); current focus on virtualizing and AI-preparation; untold enabling stories; and an open mic for attendees to share their own earthaccess experiences and contributions.

Audience
Anyone who wants to become part of the earthaccess story, get involved as contributors (users are contributors!), or learn about the python library and open science infrastructure
