LOFAR Status Meetings

LOFAR Status Meetings (LSM), presenting updates of the status of the telescope and discussing recent developments, are held bi-weekly at ASTRON. The meetings are also broadcast via Vidyo to everyone interested.

Please use a headset and please mute the microphone in the Evo session as long as you do not want to raise a question or say something.

Starting on 10 June 2015, at the end of each LSM a table round is performed to give the opportunity to the audience to bring up topics to be discussed then or at one of the following LSM's. Suggestions about implementing missing documentation/tools might be made - these are documented below. These points represent an important input to the Radio Observatory and are followed up according to other operational priorities.

Date Suggestions
10 June 2015 1. Maintain a page listing LOFAR publications
2. Maintain a repository of LOFAR slides that people can use when preparing their presentations
3. Document signal delays
2 September 2015 1. Actively notify users about software roll out, e.g. by sending an e-mail at the end of the day of the roll out
