Minutes for UA MOPS meeting, May 11, 2006
In attendance:
Tim Axelrod, Kobus Barnard, Praveen Rao
Main points:
o Summer meeting time of Tuesday, 10:00, staring May 16, confirmed.
o We had a lightly attended, but useful meeting. The usual comments about the
effectiveness of a meeting is inversely related to the number of attendees
were made.
o We discussed pragmatics for the construction of the SPIE poster.
o (Tim) MOU is very close.
o Praveen presented a straw proposal for database tables to keep track of
detections and linkages.
o We discussed the separation of data between base-camp and archive in the
context of the above. While the amount of data is not huge compared with
the raw images, it seems most convenient to focus the processing at the
archive center for a number of reasons.
o Back of the envelope calculation suggests that an order of magnitude for
the detection data base is 1GB/day.
o There is an issue of what we call the "Projection Pipeline" in relation to
the LSST/PanSTARRS collaboration. Praveen has the action item of figuring
out what (if anything) takes its place in PanSTARRS.
o Tim suggested contact between us and Jacek Becla regarding database
construction.
