IPS Database discussion agenda1. Queries, clarifications, comments, suggestions or

feedback on all aspects of HIPSS2. What the database should look like for the multi-station

IPS – suggestions?3. Is the current set of meta-data parameters sufficient?

Anything else anyone would like to see included? 1. Software Version No. etc. (Tokumaru San)

4. An assessment of the software available/in use across the institutions, esp. from a perspective of identifying pieces which can potentially be borrowed, and modified and/or integrated into this system -  Aber/EISCAT, MEXART, Ooty, STELab, UCSD.

5. Is someone else willing to contribute effort towards the IPS DB goal, esp. for multi-station aspects.

6. Any suggestions for funding opportunities for support of this effort?

The HDF5 database for Multi-station IPS dataScan

Must include meta-data & data from all the participating sites/telescopes

Need to add keyword(s) No. of participating sites, their locations, physical

baselines, projected baselinesLevel 1 data

Time series + flagging info. from each of the participating telescopes

Level 2 data Series of cross spectra for all baselines + the average cross

spectraLevel 3 data

Results of a fiducial model fit

Overall structureIPS DB

Single station data MEXART MWA Ooty

Multi-station data EISCAT LOFAR STELab

Separate Scans table for Single and Multi station data ? Needs more thought
