Did you know there are other sources of Australian weather data than just the Bureau's unnavigable website? John Barratt started http://theweatherchaser.com to collect weather data for his own analysis, and over the years it's grown into really useful archive of terabytes of different kinds of weather data.

John will be talking about the data on the site, what you can do with it, and showing some other tools like http://willigetwet.com . Then, lots of time for questions, discussion, and hands on playing with the data if you bring your laptop!

How it works:

The building goes on to security at 6 p.m. If you arrive before 6, come on up to level 23. Between 6 and 6:15, there will be someone to work the doors and lift. If you're later, you'll need to phone and we'll let you in.

There will be some snacks provided; we try to make sure that we cover vegan and gluten free. If you have specific needs, or feel like bringing something to share, please bring some food.
