To become a LEAP member please use the Application Form.

Once you have applied for membership, it will take a few days until you can be approved. Please watch out for email from LEAP that contains instructions on how to proceed.

Termination of Access

Users who violate usage policies will have their access suspended pending investigation. The LEAP Director of Data and Computing decides if a policy has been violated and may suspend or terminate access to LEAP-Pangeo at any time.

Offboarding Process

Users may also be transferred from e.g. the Education Category to the Community Category when their termed access ends. Removing a user from the corresponding team is sufficient to disable their access to those resources. Removing a user from the leap-pangeo-users group entirely will disable their access completely. An automated process will delete user data from the hub one month after a user is removed from the leap-pangeo-users group.
