HCIL Brown Bag: Interface design for the Analysis and Data Mining of the large data coming out of the ALMA telescope
HCIL (2105 Hornbake Building, South Wing)
Abstract
ALMA is a large radio interferometer in Chile, operated by a large international consortium (Europe, North America, and Japan), and is starting to show groundbreaking new science. The data products will be delivered a series of large data cubes, requiring detailed analysis to get down to the real science. I will explain the ALMA data format, and what we are proposing to do to extract science and visualize these complex results to the user. We have played with some GUI designs, but decided on a pragmatic approach, to adopt and adapt an existing web interface that ALMA is using. We are looking forward to your feedback and suggestions to improve the design.
