  1. Planetary Science Archive PSA User Group Meeting #1 Meeting Summary PSA UG #1  July 2 - 3, 2013  ESAC

  2. Agenda: Day 2 pm • Additional PSA services (D. Heather) • 13:30 Data workshops • 14:00 Additional user support • 14:15 Interoperability and IPDA involvement • 14:30 BREAK • Summary and closing actions • 15:15 Meeting summary / overview (D. Heather /All) • 15:45 Plans and actions (Chair) • 16:00 Next meeting (Chair / All) • 16:15 AOB (All) • 16:30 End of meeting • 17:00 Taxis depart ESAC for airport / Madrid

  3. Tasks The following outlines the tasks for which the PSA-UG shall be responsible: • Advise ESA on the future development of the PSA content, interfaces, documentation, compatibility with other planetary science archives and tools. • Act as a focus for the interests of the scientific community in the PSA and as an advocate for the PSA within that community. • Monitor the PSA activities to ensure they best meet the needs of the user community within the resources available. • Participate in any reviews of the PSA activities.

  4. Task achievement … ? The following outlines the tasks for which the PSA-UG shall be responsible: • Advise ESAfuture development = need UG judgement + inputs from community • Act as a focus for the interests of the scientific community = need inputs from community + visibility to community • advocate for the PSA = visibility to community • Monitor the PSA activities= homework for PSA-UG • Participate in any reviews= homework for PSA-UG • ….

  6. Visibility • Web page • Contacts of each Group Member • Usual dissemination channels: EuroPlanet mailing list, Planetary Exploration Newsletter (US) • Conferences and workshops: EPSC, EGU, ESA Booths at EGU or alike, AGU.. • Social media • Co-sponsorship of students… • RF + YGT + trainees + Faculty (ESAC/ESTEC) involvement? Action on Dave+Pedro • … • Topical data workshop? Not mission? E.g. solid planets / atmosphere? Cross-mission? Any use? • Data workshops & “rich” documentation (tutorials, screencasts, blogs, ) ESA UNCLASSIFIED – For Official Use

  7. Advocacy • Mentioning PSA in talks/papers (action on PSA-UG members and their peers/close colleagues/students) • Find/implement a citation policy for PSA data (DOI? Like pangaea.de? ) and/or quoting papers as suggested on DATASET.CAT more visible/highlighted.. • Usual medias + students + colleagues/projects • … • PSA vs. PDS could shine/compete/attract through: • Interface streamlined using latest technology but with inputs from the different fields (we PSA-UG are happy to advise e..g on map issues or alike..) = specialized interface (advanced) build with planetary in mind and with technological heritage but not more than what is needed.. • Knowledge management + workshops + user feedback/forums/community building and MANTAINING (+ social media) + wikis ? Etc.? ESA UNCLASSIFIED – For Official Use

  9. Community/PSA inputs • Addressing community • Questionnaire ? Preparation? Distribution Europlanet? PSA users directory, if any? •  Questionnaire is useful but first we should look trustable (e.g. showing what’s in the pipeline wrt interface/gwt) • Addressing PSA • Collectinginputs from PSA-ers ?
