Pulsar VO Project Tracker
The Pulsar Virtual Observatory (VO) project is an endeavour to make publicly available the data from two large pulsar surveys done with the Parkes radio telescope: the 70-cm Southern Pulsar Survey, and the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey.
Summary
There are two aspects to this project, which are detailed on the following wiki pages:
- ConversionSoftware -- software to convert data into FITS format, along with other software to examine the resulting files.
- WebQuery -- putting the data online and making it accessible through browser-based queries and VO services.
Progress
The page ToDo has a table showing what tasks need to be done, and who is responsible. See also Active Tickets
There is more detail on the page DetailedWorkNeeded, discussing exactly what jobs need to be done. This will be useful for the "sprint" week, where I will be devoting most of my time to finishing the project.
There is also a document that details various aspects of the implementation of the archive and the VO queries: see source:trunk/docs/VOimplementation.pdf
