Earlier this month, researchers at the San Diego Supercomputer Center launched a new initiative designed to accelerate technological innovations for wildfire management and mitigation. "The Wildfire Science & Technology Commons will enable researchers, innovators, and practitioners to collaborate on next-generation solutions by providing easy access to data, models, computing resources and expertise. Users will have the opportunity to contribute to a comprehensive catalog of valuable data and models, share innovative solutions and connect with experts across many disciplines and domains," according to an article by UC San Diego Today.
