[csp] "Radioastronomy in the VO" session at IVOA interop in October

Thu Sep 19 08:59:54 CEST 2019

Geachte Michiel,

Thanks so much for your positive response to our invitation. We are very pleased to hear that so many of you from ASTRON will be at the meeting and that we will even get a presentation from Mike Sipior elsewhere in the interop meeting. That is all great news. Please let us know which topics would you be particularly interested on for the discussion and we can make sure that they will be part of the questions and answers session.

Best regards,

Bruno

You can read more details below. I would be very grateful whether you could confirm a) your interest in the topic and b) whether you would agree to make a small presentation about the implementation experiences on your observatory of VO standards for radio data.

Given the vast experience in radioastronomy in the area and the potential availability of several expert radioastronomers in the area, we had the idea of organizing a “Radioastronomy in the VO” session to examine together the availability to radio data in the VO and try to identify the simplest steps to connect both worlds or at least to move slightly in the right direction. We would be talking about a 1.5 to 2 hour plenary session during the IVOA interop meeting in Groningen with a few small presentations to set the context and a discussion on what to do next. We would first like to invite you all to this session (either in person or remotely, giving a talk or just participating in the discussion) and would like to ask how do you think this discussion could be more useful to both parties. We will take care of all the logistics of the session.
>>> 
>>> An earlier similar discussion already took place in the context of the ESCAPE project and the notes can be found here <http://mailsweeper.astron.nl:32224/?dmVyPTEuMDAxJiYxNWZmYTliNWY5YzJiOTUwYj01RDc3NTYwQl8zNjQwNV8xNzg5XzEmJjg2YmZlNDg5MTlmN2M3Mj0xMjMzJiZ1cmw9aHR0cHMlM0ElMkYlMkZ3d3clMkVhc3RlcmljczIwMjAlMkVldSUyRmRva3V3aWtpJTJGZG9rdSUyRXBocCUzRmlkJTNEb3BlbiUzQXdwNCUzQXdwNHRlY2hmb3J1bTUlM0FyYWRpb2ludGhldm8=>. Therefore, we could start the session with a summary of the conclusions from the earlier meeting by e.g. Francois Bonnarel from CDS and then try to identify the next steps to make all the Radio data easily available to the VO world and viceversa. We are very much aware that this is a long-standing goal from the VO but we are determined to give it a second push now that many interfaces and protocols have matured substantially in the VO side.
