GEM Workshop
The Van Allen Probes Mission held a Data Workshop during the 2013 GEM Workshop in Snowmass,Colorado.
The purpose of the workshop is to showcase Van Allen Probes mission and provide a forum where interested users can gain experience with working with the various datasets and tools. The workshop is divided into two sessions; an introductory session that will outline the tools and data available, followed by a "hands on" session where users will explore data from the March 17th, 2013 Geomagnetic Storm.
