> Virtual Observatory School - First Announcement
> February 5 - 7, 2013
> Centro de Astrobiología. Campus ESAC
> Madrid, SPAIN
> Deadline for registration: December 21
>
> The CoSADIE project is organising an international VO School at Centro de
> Astrobiología, Madrid, Spain.
>
> The Virtual Observatory (VO) is opening up new ways of exploiting the huge
> amount of data provided by the ever-growing number of ground-based and space
> facilities, as well as by computer simulations. The goals of the School are
> to expose European astronomers to the variety of VO tools and services
> available today so that they can use them efficiently for their own research.
>
> To achieve these goals, VO experts will lecture and tutor the participants on
> the usage of such tools. Real life examples of scientific applications will
> be given, some of them selected from the science cases that participants will
> be asked to submit at the time of registration. A large fraction of the time
> will be dedicated to hands-on exercises, which will allow participants to
> become fully familiar with the VO capabilities on their own laptops.
>
> Tools providing the following functionalities will be presented:
>
> Data discovery
> Catalogue and table handling
> Image and spectra handling
> Cross-correlations
>
> In order to ensure the right level of interaction, participation will be
> restricted to a limited number of participants (35). Preference will be given
> to PhD students and post-docs.
>
> Deadline for registration is December 21, 2012.
>
> Some travel support is available for this workshop.
