Join the Hackathon in Vienna!
Is it time to add space technology skills – and a real project – to your resumé? Join the 11th CASSINI Hackathon to access EU space data and develop a solution which protects our natural water resources.
You don’t need any experience: you’ll get all the training and tools to utilise EU space data and tackle the issues of water scarcity, flooding, or pollution. Over three days in Vienna, you’ll hear from experts in space tech and environmental industries. You’ll learn how to access datasets from Copernicus, EGNOS and Galileo. Then you’ll connect with other professionals to form a multi-skilled team. This edition has three challenges on the theme of water:
- Securing equitable and efficient access to water
- Tracking and preventing water pollution
- Disaster risk monitoring
With Alpine water sources, municipal networks, and flood risk zones, Austria presents its own challenges related to water management. At this Hackathon, we will look closely at our real-world context and consider solutions such as leak detection, quality monitoring, asset management, and flood risk prediction.
Experts will be on hand to help participants explore local opportunities and learn to utilise space data.
Local prizes:
- Receive expert guidance from mentors across tech, business, and space industries
- Connect with Europe’s leading space and innovation ecosystem
Central prizes:
Additionally, the local winners will qualify for the European competition, where they will receive the following prizes:
- 1st place: €5,000
- 2nd place: €3,000
- 3rd place: €1,000
Mentoring
The top 3 teams across all competing hackathons will each be awarded an additional 6 months of expert mentoring by CASSINI.
