Hierarchical Data Analysis with Xarray DataTree & Zarr

July 8, 13:30–17:30 (US/Pacific), Tacoma Convention Center Room 315

This 4-hour workshop will explore content from the Xarray tutorial, which contains a comprehensive collection of hands-on tutorial Jupyter Notebooks. We will review a curated set of examples that will prepare you for increasingly complex real-world data analysis tasks!

Learning Goals

  • Understand Xarray’s core data structures

  • Understand how to map typical Xarray computations and workflows over hierarchical data

  • Understand how common storage formats correspond to the DataTree model

  • Open a public Zarr store in the cloud and manipulate the contents
