Thanks @savalann for putting this together! Just had a quick look and a couple suggestions:

1. You'll need to add your notebooks to the table of contents file if you want them to render on the website

   • website-2024/book/_toc.yml

     Lines 18 to 22 in 0c6cfa5

     	- caption: Tutorials
     	chapters:
     	- file: tutorials/index
     	sections:
     	- file: tutorials/example/tutorial-notebook

2. This is currently 60MB, which is kind of large!

   • not critical, but for simple vector data consider using geojson or geopackage instead of shapefiles because it's nice to just have a single file to work with, and there are other advantages (http://www.geopackage.org)
   • I think you can remove 03.output folder from the PR if those are files that are generated by running your code
   • Consider moving your input data files to a separate repository that you copy in at the beginning of the notebook https://guidebook.hackweek.io/training/technology/data-management.html#guidelines-for-tutorials

3. This seems to be a lot of content for a 60min session, so be sure to do a run-though to make sure you're able to cover your main points in the allotted time

Thanks for this great contribution @savalann ! I've noted a couple of requested changes for typos.

Have you tested this on CryoCloud yet? If possible, we'd like to make sure any packages needed are pre-installed with the default environment participants will use during the hackweek. Though, I was able to run this pip install command successfully, so perhaps we don't need to pre-install these.

Hi Steven
Thank you for the corrections. I tried it on the CryoCloud, which worked with the first pip installs.
Do you think you need to pre-install them?
Have you run all the code?

I can add in py-xgboost and hydroeval to CryoCloud in CryoInTheCloud/hub-image#125 if you want? Just checking if you need the GPU version of XGBoost, or just the CPU version.
