Are you running an astronomy survey or planning to start one soon?

Do you have data that needs a permanent home?

Data Central can help run your survey, store your data and provide access for the astronomical community! We will accept data sets of any size and shape. With your data in Data Central you can cross-match against a growing number of datasets, including the recently release OzDES DR2, as well as upcoming GALAH and SAMI data releases.

Some of the features of the Data Central ecosystem include:


  *   The main portal for querying and other data services: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/E0NICE8wmrtAQ84oFNAfnn?domain=datacentral.org.au
  *   The ability to manage your documentation: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/kpaJCGv0oyCyVN3Zh7dkwC?domain=docs.datacentral.org.au
  *   Cloud Storage for your team: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/q4tKCJyBrGf47W9LczMm2j?domain=cloud.datacentral.org.au
  *   A wiki to run your survey: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/cHlhCK1DvKTAjy7xFAYZJE?domain=yoursurvey.datacentral.org.au
  *   A portal to manage (and start) your team: https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/gMInCL7EwMfoJDBMhj5wKP?domain=teams.datacentral.org.au

And coming soon:


  *   Private team data access
  *   Mailing list management
  *   New visualisation tools

If you need any encouragement, this is what Caroline Foster, PI of the MAGPI team had to say:

The MAGPI Survey team relies on Data Central services: cloud, wiki and data archive. The Data Central team has been very responsive to the MAGPI team’s feedback from the moment our collaboration started and dedicated to provide bespoke services. The recent addition of the Data Central teams app now offers increased visibility and independence with managing access to the various Data Central MAGPI-specific functionalities. Having all these services under one provider also saves time by minimising redundancies.

I do hope that this “partnership" with the MAGPI team has also been useful in achieving the Data Central goals, I know I am still blown away at the trust and level of service we have received from your team, so thank you truly!


So please get in touch by requesting a team at https://teams.datacentral.org.au!

Thanks,
Simon
