CEDAR email: InGeO team seeking community input

[Asti Bhatt]

Dear Colleagues,

The Integrated Geoscience Observatory (InGeO) team has begun planning 
for the 2021 releases of Resen, our Reproducible Software Environment 
platform, and we would like to hear your input on new Python packages 
and toolkits that would be useful in your research!  Resen uses 
containerization technology to create self-contained computational 
environments where users can easily perform scientific analyses and then 
package and share code and results in a system agnostic manner, creating 
computationally reproducible results. This makes it easy to bundle code 
and data together and obtain a doi to cite in a journal article.

Resen was originally released at CEDAR in 2019, and since then the team 
has been releasing regular updates biannually.  For more information on 
the InGeO project and Resen, please see the InGeO website 
(https://ingeo.datatransport.org 
<https://ingeo.datatransport.org/home/>) or the Resen documentation 
(https://resen.readthedocs.io/en/v2020.2.1/ 
<https://resen.readthedocs.io/en/v2020.2.1/>).

One of the main advantages of Resen is that our computation environments 
(called “buckets”) come pre-installed with a variety of community 
developed Python packages, which makes it much easier for researchers to 
start producing results immediately.  Resen currently has a fairly wide 
range of packages available 
(https://ingeo.datatransport.org/home/resen/packages 
<https://ingeo.datatransport.org/home/resen/packages>), but we are 
looking for community feedback as to new packages that are useful for 
the geospace researchers.  If you have developed a toolkit that may be 
useful to the broader CEDAR community, or just have packages you 
frequently use in your work, please let us know so we can consider 
adding them!  Feel free to reach out to us either through the InGeO team 
email address (ingeo-team at ingeo.datatransport.org 
<mailto:ingeo-team at ingeo.datatransport.org>) or by submitting a GitHub 
issue (https://github.com/EarthCubeInGeo/resen-core/issues 
<https://github.com/EarthCubeInGeo/resen-core/issues>).

Thank you,

The InGeO team
