* Original concept in Observation data model IVOA note (2005)
The basic concepts of this model have been discussed as early as 2002/2004. It gave birth to the Spectral data model and the characterisation data model. The draft for the full Observation model became an
IVOA note in 2005. The concept of provenance was introduced in this note.
* Motivation and use cases
The motivation and use cases for a provenance data model have been discussed at most of the Interop meetings between 2006 and 2012 with evolution of the concept:
* First xml attempts
* UML diagram
* Sao Paulo review (October 2012)
In a dedicated splinter meeting at this interop an attempt was made to relaunch the effort. There was a lot of use cases summarized in the
Introduction talk as well as a summary of the previous technological attempts. there were talks by Nikos from Marseille (caclulator),
ArnoldRots and
KristinRiebe, but unfortunatly they are lost. A the end of the meeting
MarkusDemleitner concluded that the approach followed so far was defintly too ambitious and we had to start with revised ambitions and more stable technology. This started at the Heidelberg meeting in May 2013.
