The Open Planets Foundation, the University of Chapel Hill’s School of Library and Information Science and the United States Library of Congress proudly presents:
The OPF Hackathon at UNC Chapel Hill: Tackling Real-World Collection Challenges with Digital Forensics Tools and Methods.
Come join world renowned digital preservation experts, collection managers, and coders as we collectively hack through digital preservation problems using a variety of digital forensics methods and approaches.
Collection owners: Bring with you disk images of digital data you want to assess, analyze and preserve. As part of a team, and with support from experts, you’ll apply forensics tools to solve your digital preservation challenges.
Developers: Bring with you your laptop-based development setup and your best coding skills. Working closely with other developers, and our experts, you’ll apply forensics and other software tools to solve the digital preservation challenges provided by the practitioners.
Our expert facilitators will be available to provide hands on guidance. We will also be presenting awards for best collection challenge and best technical solution!
This is the first OPF Hackathon taking place in the United States and we are thrilled to host you as we hack out solutions to common problems in born-digital collections.
