Computer Science Students Present Weather Retrieval Tool Project

255

Rural Reimagined recognizes and congratulates Tavian Dodd, Chandler Hendrick, Brain Kemp, Bryce McDonald, and Grant Qualls from the Computer Science Program on presenting their Capstone project at Tennessee Tech’s Engineering Expo. Their project was titled “ORNL Weather Retrieval Tool,” and the main goal of this project was to make an application that can directly access the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) archives and pull the requested data for the user. Their system would allow users “to download data from one or more weather stations” and solve the delay in weather data retrieval that ORNL is experiencing. Congrats to this team for their hard work, which directly impacts our rural areas, and successfully completing their Capstone.
