Agenda topics proposals

Feel free to add here the topics you would like to see discussed during the meetings

• (your discussion topic here)
• Spectrum Model: recent topics
  • Spectrum.Char.SpatialAxis.Coverage.Location (20240705)
    • https://github.com/ivoa-std/SpectrumDM/issues/13
    • Is there an action here to look into making this OPTIONAL in the model?
    • Do we need to add something to identify Theoretical?
    • Do we want to recommend how they should identify the dataset as "GAIA DR4"?
  • VOCLASS keyword value in spec does not match example
    • https://github.com/ivoa-std/SpectrumDM/issues/12
  • DATE-OBS keyword
    • https://github.com/ivoa-std/SpectrumDM/issues/8
• IVOA Note for FITS serializations: http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/dm/2024-June/006476.html
  • discussion started as question about lightcurve data model, but was concluding with a proposal to develop an IVOA Note with ‘preferred’ serializations for various products in FITS format.
  • This project would require review/assessment of the ‘big players’ currently in practice and define a recommended serialization. This would probably include a dictionary for FITS keywords for metadata at the Dataset/ObsCore level.
  • There are many in the community that are very keen on this project and, I think, would be a valuable resource.
