| | Education IG
High Energy IG
HEIG Goals:
- ObsCore continuation - Continue with HEIG Note on Obscore extension for HE data; coordination with DM WG & others to move this to WG level
- VOEvent - followup/continuation from the side-meeting we had in Malta; form a plan
- DataModel /Event List/High Energy data formats - pursue next steps
Knowledge Discovery IG
Operations IG
Ongoing activity:
- Monitor VO health:
- Coordinate "weather reports" (service compliance)
- Address non-compliancy:
- Identify common/persistent errors
- Support/encourage service operators to improve service compliance
- Work with WGs on standards-related issues
- Validation:
- Ensure validators are available (IvoaValidatorsSummary)
- Encourage use of validators:
- on deployed services
- during standard development
- Communication:
- Provide forum for discussion of operational issues
- Host/invite "site reports"
- Encourage feedback communication between ops services and data providers
Specific focus:
- Work with DAL on standards issues:
- ConeSearch: UCD1+
- DALI: Sexagesimal markup standards
- SSA: A couple of Errata suggested
- Push for service metadata improvements:
- Operations in the cloud
- Security in VO services
- Encourage TAP validators developers to add checks for sql injection susceptibility
- Authentication as an operational necessity
- User agents used in VO services clients
Radio IG
Solar System IG
EPN-TAP 2.1
- progress in various domains (sort out heliophysics and body-fixed coordinate frames, start small bodies taxonomy)
workflows
- Installation tests, mock-up service
use cases
- Collect some in planetary science & heliophysics
- start generating more tutorials / education actions
Expose planetary content from telescope archives
EPN-TAP support in pyvo
