Virtual Data Help Desk at vEGU21 Volunteer Form
Volunteer to be a Data or Software Expert for the upcoming Virtual Data Help Desk to be hosted during the first week of the 2021 European Geosciences Union General Assembly (#vEGU21: Gather Online; 19-23 April 2021). The Data Help Desk, which is a program of the Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP), EGU, AGU, and their partners, connects researchers with informatics experts familiar with their scientific domain to learn about skills and techniques that will help further their research and make their data and software more open and FAIR. You can volunteer to take part in one or more of the following ways:
 
1) Answer earth science data questions (monitor platform and answer where you can);
2) Share a recorded demo (share a brief recorded demo of a tool or resource, ideally <5 min);
3) Share a one-pager about your tool or resource.

Please complete this form as soon as possible by 5 April 2021. If you have participated in past Data Help Desks, please still fill out this form and indicate whether we may again share resources you may have contributed in the past. If you have questions, please contact megancarter@esipfed.org.
