Last time: whiteboard session

    Conclusions:

  • 19 subjects divided into (not exclusive)
  • 6 need L1
  • 6 need L2
  • 9 need L3

    • (expert user bias, but still)

    Data levels:

  • L1-a) Wide beams (sub-array)
  • L1-b) Narrow beams
  • L2-a) Lag profiles
  • L2-b) Interferometry
  • L3-a) Parameter profiles
  • L3-b) Voxels
  • L4) the rest

Today:
Meta data and supplementary instruments

    Tasks:

  • Something missing from the list?
  • What meta-data will be needed?
  • What supplementary instrumentation will be needed?

"All the data & instruments"
is not an acceptable answer!
