ASTERICS European Data Provider Forum
| Submitter: | Adriaan Renting |
| Description: | The ASTERICS project organized its second European Data Provider Forum and Training Event at the Zentrum für Astronomie at Heidelberg University, Germany on 26-29 June 2018. This workshop convenes both researchers and engineers on the topic of on-line publishing of astronomical data and related services. It is an opportunity to identify common challenges and problems, to exchange solutions, and to share perspectives. ASTERICS (Astronomy ESFRI & Research Infrastructure Cluster) is an EU Horizon 2020 project that targets the common challenges shared by several astronomy facilities, including CTA, LOFAR / SKA, KM3Net, EGO / VIRGO / ET, EST, and E-ELT. The event is part of ASTERICS work package 4, DADI (Data Access, Discovery and Interoperability), aiming to support broad accessibility and effective archiving in data centres based on the Virtual Observatory (VO) framework. ASTRON was represented at this event by Rob van der Meer, Marco Iacobelli and Adriaan Renting. We presented our current efforts in enabling VO access to the LOFAR and WSRT archives, and developing the Astron Data Portal. |
