  1. SuperDARN Scheduling Working Group Report Tim Yeoman for Gareth Chisham and the Scheduling Working Group SuperDARN Workshop 2011

  2. SuperDARN Scheduling in the Last Year • Scheduling has once again run smoothly over the last year with very few scheduling conflicts • The only conflicts at present are between the scheduling of THEMIS Common Time and Discretionary Time (with THEMIS Time generally having priority)

  3. SuperDARN Time Usage 2010/11 Common Time (THEMIS) Common Time (1-min) Discretionary Time 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 2010 2011

  4. SuperDARN Time Usage Yearly Variation Common Time (2-min) Common Time (1-min) Discretionary Time Common Time (THEMIS) Special Time 01/02 03/04 05/06 07/08 09/10 02/03 04/05 06/07 08/09 10/11 Year

  5. Issues for Consideration/Discussion E-mail: darn-swg@ion.le.ac.uk (1) Should THEMIS Common Time continue as it is at present? • Should THEMIS Common Time still be scheduled with the highest priority? • How much THEMIS Common Mode data has been used in combination with spacecraft observations? (How many papers?) • Given that it is not exclusively all THEMIS-related time, should it be renamed Spacecraft Common Time or something similar? • Is the present mode (2-min scan with single camping beam – 100 range gates) still the best mode for coordinated analysis?

  6. SuperDARN scheduling challenges for 2012: Radar support for RBSP Radar conjunctions with RBSP can be scheduled as for THEMIS/Cluster Storm times are of prime interest. How do we organise a scheduling system which can respond to storm alerts/forecasts

  7. SuperDARN scheduling challenges for 2012: Radar support for RBSP • What radar modes should be run for: • Network-wide support during storm times • Apogee conjunctions with individual radars
