GIS: Geocoding Services
1
Geocoding is the process of taking a street address and converting it into coordinates that can be plotted on a map. This conversion typically requires an API call to a remote server hosted by an organization/institution. The remote server will take the address attributes provided by you and the remote server will compare it to the data it contains and return a best estimate on the coordinates for that location.
There are many geocoding services available with different world coverages, quality of result, and set different rate limits for access. For R, a package called "tidygeocoder" provides an easy way to connect to these different services. As an additional benefit, their documentation provides a good summary of geocoding services available and links to their documentation. The link to the documentation for gecoding services accessible by "tidygeocoder" is provided below.
For Python, geopy package is a library that provides connection to various geocoding services. The link to the documentation for this package is also included below.

Regulated Research Community of Practice
0
The daily news clearly shows the increasing threat to safety and privacy of data, personal as well as intellectual property. While the requirements such as DFARS 7012, HIPAA, and Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) improve the consistency of data handling between agencies and contractors and grantees, it leaves academic institutions to figure out how to meet such requirements in a cost-effective way that fits the research and education mission of the institution. Most institutions, agencies, and companies act in isolation with one-off contract language to address data security and safeguarding concerns. Even though cybersecurity has a clear and uniform goal of protecting data, a onesize solution does not fit all academic institutions.
By supporting this community with development of a community strategic roadmap, regular discussions and workshops, and a repository of generalized and specific resources for handling regulated research programs RRCoP lowers the barrier to entry for institutions handling new regulations.

Paraview UArizona HPC links (advanced)
0
These links take you to visualization resources supported by the University of Arizona's HPC visualization consultant ([rtdatavis.github.io](http://rtdatavis.github.io/)). The following links are specific to the Paraview program and the workflows that have been used my researchers at the U of Arizona. These links are distinct from the others posted in the beginner paraview access ci links from the University of Arizona in that they are for more complex workflows. The links included explain how to use the terminal with paraview (pvpython), and the steps to leverage HPC resources for headless batch rendering. The batch rendering tutorial is significantly more complex than the others so if you find yourself stuck please post on the https://ask.cyberinfrastructure.org/ and I will try to troubleshoot with you.
Neurodesk
0
Neurodesk provides a containerised data analysis environment to facilitate reproducible analysis of neuroimaging data. Analysis pipelines for neuroimaging data typically rely on specific versions of packages and software, and are dependent on their native operating system. These dependencies mean that a working analysis pipeline may fail or produce different results on a new computer, or even on the same computer after a software update. Neurodesk provides a platform in which anyone, anywhere, using any computer can reproduce your original research findings given the original data and analysis code.

Vulkan Support Survey across Systems
0
It's not uncommon to see beautiful visualizations in HPC center galleries, but the majority of these are either rendered off the HPC or created using programs that run on OpenGL or custom rasterization techniques. To put it simply the next generation of graphics provided by OpenGL's successor Vulkan is strangely absent in the super computing world. The aim of this survey of available resources is to determine the systems that can support Vulkan workflows and programs. This will assist users in getting past some of the first hurdles in using Vulkan in HPC contexts.
