Innovate with VOEvent: Navigating New Territories Through Commitment and Teamwork

Enter a mission-critical phase with VOEvent as we explore uncharted territories. Emphasizing teamwork, roles will be clarified and once activated, it remains on indefinitely. With dedicated resources and reliable support, expand capacity to LSST levels. Engage in consensus-building with SkyAlert & LSST/CRTS updates and stay informed on SimpleTimeSeries workflows. Join discussions on time domain requirements and future visions for VOEvent v2.0. Discover how to scale up, collaborate effectively, and navigate the evolving landscape of VOEvent at key astronomical events.

  1. VOEvent Working Group IVOA InterOp Victoria May 2010

  2. VOEvent network operations • Entering new mission-critical phase • Unexplored territories • Commitment to resolving problems • Teamwork will be (re)emphasized • More specific roles • Once turned on, it stays on – forever • Dedicated resources, many 9’s reliability • User support 24/7/365 • Capacity must scale up to LSST levels

  3. VOEvent WG activities 0.5 SkyAlert & LSST/CRTS iPhone App v2.0 (consensus-building) SimpleTimeSeries Workflows TCPV SEAP Autonomous VOEventStreams Open Source Broker/clients (Bob Denny)

  4. VOEvent session 1 (Wed 11a, Merino) Time Domain requirements from the growing VOEventcommunity • Intro • Hot projects (eg, LOFAR & LIGO), R. Williams • Transport, global networking, service tiers • NOAO transients • LSST topics • Slots for other speakers • Rousing discussion

  5. VOEvent session 2(Thurs 9a, Merino) Short term plans / long term vision for the VO time domain • Intro • VOEvent v2.0 • Simple Event Access Protocol, Graham • Time series,Rots • Tables & Light Curve Access Protocol, Williams • Other speakers • Spirited discussion

  6. V2.0 – Time Series + • SimpleTimeSeriesin <What> • STC Orbital Elements in <WhereWhen> • More general external <References> • Datatypes for <Param> • Benefit from vocabularies • Tweaks and small enhancements • Ruggedize schema while keeping simple

  7. Many Meetings • dotAstronomy, Leiden – 30 Nov - 4 Dec 2009 • Eventful Universe, Tucson – 17-20 Mar 2010 • IVOA InterOp, Victoria – 17-21 May 2010 • SPIE, Observatory Ops & SW / Cyberinfrastructure San Diego – 27 Jun - 2 Jul 2010 • ADASS XX Tutorial, Boston – 7-11 Nov 2010 • New Horizons in Time Domain Astronomy IAU symposium, Griffin & Hanisch, Chairs Oxford – 19-23 Sep 2011 Hotwired III, Tucson (?)– Spring 2012

  8. Many Projects • CRTS • SkyAlert • Pan-STARRS Moving Object Pipeline • LSST • LOFAR (ATA, SKA, …) • LIGO (and neutrinos and…) • Telegrams – VO-GCN, CBAT, MPC, ATEL, … LCOGT & robotic telescopes • Target-of-Opportunity for large telescopes

  9. Celestial alert publishers • VOEventNet: • Gamma-ray burst Coordinates Network • Minor Planet Center • Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams • Astronomer’s Telegrams • SkyAlert • dotAstro …

  10. The Tao of VOEvent • High level • Light weight • Flexible • Low cost of entry

  11. VOEvent dualism • Low latency & rich semantics • Human readable & computer parse-able • Robotic autonomy & historical telegrams • Push paradigm vs. SEAP for query • All design choices are made under dynamic tension

  12. VOEvent Karma IVOA boundary protocol That is… asgateway drug for the Virtual Observatory
