Solvers,

We want to draw your attention to two newly available resources for GF Challenge solvers:

1. "Using Python to Access the Geopolitical Forecasting Challenge API" - A document that describes some of the nuances of the Cultivate Labs API, and includes example code for quickly implementing an API client. (https://github.com/gfchallenge/gfc/blob/master/src/notebooks/GF%20Challenge%20API%20Example.ipynb)

2. Worldwide Integrated Crisis Early Warning System (W-ICEWS) data - An export of coded event data from the W-ICEWS system. Throughout the GF Challenge updated data exports will be posted to the site on an approximately weekly basis. These events can be used in your GF Challenge solutions, and will serve as the resolution standard for some IFPs (https://github.com/gfchallenge/gfc/tree/master/data/ICEWS).

Share any questions or comments on the Forum once you've had an opportunity to explore the new resources.
