Exo-Planetary Systems Data Model Meeting
INAF-OAPd, Padova, 20-21/09/2018
[back to ASTERICS DADI WP4 main wiki page]
Goal
Starting from the experience aimed at deploying through the VO the Time Series for exoplanets (see, e.g., the GAPS Time Series face-to-face) first hints that a model to describe and annotate (exo-)planetary systems might be needed to allow for proper dataset discovery and metadata annotation. The solution of a common model for this specific area of interest was later enhanced by exoplanetary atmosphere numerical simulations and exoplanets catalogue and their visual client applications.
Thus the idea of this meeting was launched to start gathering the first block for the above model and to try to identify interests in the community to improve and adopt it.

Meeting Report
The meeting highlighted use cases and requirements from the exoplanets scientific community. It also showed that the modelling effort may both re-use existing models (like the Simulations DM or DataSet Metadata Model), require new components specific to the data in use and provide requirements for ongoing modelling efforts (mainly the Source DM). Time Series considerations were also taken into account, but those were, for the most part, already discussed in a previous meeting.

Logistics
The meeting will take place at the INAF-Astronomical Observatory of Padova. Directions to reach the place can be found here.
