Background

EGU 2022 was the first-ever fully hybrid EGU meeting, was a great success with 12,332 presentations in 791 sessions. 7,315 colleagues from 89 countries participated on site in Vienna, accompanied by 7,002 virtual attendees from 116 countries.

The Data Help Desk was accordingly rescaled by the organizers (EPSI).

In several online meetings conducted by ESIP prior to EGU , it was agreed to keep a small footprint, limiting the physical presence on site to an information screen on the EGU premises, which would iterated through a slide set, intended to trigger requests by tweets or E-mail from attending persons about research data and code.
