RadioNet/AstroGrid workshop for radio data providers

  5-8 Dec 2006 Oxford, England

(following science workshop 4-5 Dec)

OPEN FOR REGISTRATION and ACCOMODATION BOOKING

This linked pair of workshops are aimed at astronomers, software developers and other scientists who are

  1. interested in using VO tools for scientific research to compare and process data from all parts of the e-m spectrum (4-5 Dec), and/or
  2. involved with radio archives and large surveys or other data collections and pipelines (5-8 Dec).

Both workshops will be hands-one and you will exchange skills and tackle data-related problems. This may involve some preparatory work
(installing software, setting up access to a suitable data
collection).
