A week-long Cyberinfrastructure Summer Institute for Geoscientists (CSIG) was held from July 18-22, 2005 at the San Diego Supercomputer Center, University of California, San Diego. The CSIG was designed to introduce geoscientists to commonly-used as well as emergent information technology (IT) tools.

Topics covered include Data Modeling, Web Services, and Geographic Information Systems. A brief introduction was also provided to key concepts in Grid Computing, Parallel Programming, and Scientific Workflows, with a view towards covering these topics in more detail in a subsequent Institute offering.

This CSIG was made possible through funding provided by NSF (http://www.nsf.gov).
