[ASA] ADACS and ARDC joint webinar October 22

[Rebecca Lange]

Hi all,

I would like to invite you to a joint ADACS and ARDC webinar on FAIR data in astronomy research.

When: Monday 22 October 2018, 12pm - 1pm AWST /  3pm - 4pm AEDT
RSVP via gotowebinar<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/e-baCOMxNytJJKLWSEBsvU?domain=curtin.us13.list-manage.com>

In this webinar ARDC is partnering with the ADACS project to explore the FAIR data principles in the context of Astronomy research and the ASVO and IVOA as a community exemplars of the implementation of the FAIR data principles.

Speakers
Keith Russell (ARDC): Looking at FAIR - In this talk Keith will provide an overview of the FAIR principles and how it was used in astronomy before it became official. He will conclude the talk by discussing what other disciplines can learn from their approach.

Dr. Katrina Sealey (Macquarie University): Australian Astronomy and the FAIR Data Principles - what does this look like? The broad concepts of findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable data has long been a part of the astronomical communities data principles. Now that the world wide data communities are working towards formalised FAIR principles we will discuss how the astronomical community is adopting the FAIR principles into our ASVO data management.

Dr Luke Davies (ICRAR, UWA): Hosting the next generation of galaxy evolution surveys at AAO Data Central - The final talk of the webinar will look at a case study. Luke will discuss data products from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA - www.gama-survey.org<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/snruCP7yOZtOOx1pC0L6cO?domain=gama-survey.org>) survey and Deep Extragalactic Visible Legacy Survey (DEVILS -devilsurvey.org<https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/hAB6CQnzP0t88W10TM97jP?domain=devilsurvey.org>) and how they are generally used. Furthermore, he will outline some of the challenges faced in terms of hosting and serving these data to the community, and how the AAO Data Central helped overcome these challenges.


All the best,
