LMU Open Science Center Hackathon

Join the Effort to Preserve At-Risk Research Data

   07.08.2025

   4:00 pm - 7:00 pm

   Leopoldstr. 13, 80802 Munich (exact room TBA to registered participants)

The LMU Open Science Center invites researchers, students, and enthusiasts to the upcoming Safeguar.de Hackathon, a hands-on event focused on rescuing and preserving endangered research datasets.

The hackathon will kick off with an ignition talk by Henrik Schönemann (HU Berlin), co-initiator of the safeguar.de project. Participants will then engage in practical sessions, including:

  • Seeding research datasets via BitTorrent
  • Repurposing old hardware (e.g., 2.5" HDDs, Raspberry Pis) as data rescue nodes
  • Writing documentation and building one-click installation tools

This event is open to everyone. Contributions to outreach, coordination, and creative ideas are highly welcome.

Contribute by attending, participating in discussions, or donating unused hardware.
