Machine Access

By Advanced Research Computing (ARC)

We provide USGS and DOI scientists access to High Performance Computing (HPC) systems:
- in-house USGS Yeti Supercomputing Cluster in Denver, CO.
- in-house USGS Tallgrass Supercomputer in Sioux Falls, SD.
- in-house USGS Denali Supercomputer in Sioux Falls, SD.

To get started using Yeti, Tallgrass, and Denali or for more information, contact us at hpc@usgs.gov.

If you need access to greater computing power we can help you write proposals for allocations on larger systems run by the NSF XSEDE program or our partners at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
