DrivenData is a website that hosts machine learning competitions, often involving some component of Earth Science or hydrology. In 2022, they hosted a competition sponsored by the US Bureau of Reclamation to predict snow quantity across the Western US. Although I didn’t have much experience with machine learning at the time, I decided to participate …

Overview Last winter I tried my hand at competing in a machine learning competition to predict snow water equivalent (SWE) across the Western United States. I learned a lot and created a two part blog series to document both the competition and my approach: Machine Learning for Snow Hydrology – A CompetitionMachine Learning for Snow …
