The cryosphere research community strives to characterize, understand, and predict complex environments that are undergoing rapid change. These rapid changes have societal impacts - from glacial hazards to ground thaw to water security - and analysis must keep up with scientist and decision maker needs. To enhance collaboration, analysis efficiency, and discovery, many in the cryosphere science community use, have built or are building valuable community tools and datasets. These resources support accessible science and technology across applications and international boundaries. Using open source building blocks connects our community with a vast body of open source software expertise, and open licensing enables serendipitous knowledge exchange within the research sector and more broadly. Resources are most useful when the community knows how to find and apply them. This session highlights open source and open access research tools, collaborative data products aligning with FAIR data principles, and examples of successful application.
