EuroVO-ICE School, 21-24 March 2011, Strasbourg, First announcement----
Virtual Observatory School - First Announcement
March 21 - 24, 2011
Observatoire de Strasbourg
Strasbourg, FRANCE
deadline for registration : February 7
The EURO-VO project, in the framework of the EURO-VO International Cooperation Empowerment (ICE), is organising an international School at the Observatoire de Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France.
The Virtual Observatory (VO) is opening up new ways of exploiting the huge amount of data provided by the ever-growing number of ground-based and space facilities, as well as by computer simulations. The goals of the School are to expose European astronomers to the variety of VO tools and services available today so that they can use them efficiently for their own research.
To achieve these goals, VO experts will lecture and tutor the participants on the usage of such tools. Real life examples of scientific applications will be given, some of them selected from the science cases that participants will be asked to submit at the time of registration. A large fraction of the time will be dedicated to hands-on exercises, which will allow participants to become fully familiar with the VO capabilities on their own laptops.
Tools providing the following functionalities will be presented :
Data discovery and data mining
Catalogue and table handling
Image and spectra handling
Cross-correlations
In order to ensure the right level of interaction, participation will be restricted to a limited number of participants. Preference will be given to PhD students and post-docs.
Deadline for registration is February 7, 2011.
Some travel support is available for this workshop.
