| Abstract: |
LOFAR is a continent-scale radio telescope based in the Netherlands and
with stations across much of Europe. In operation now for more than a decade, LOFAR
has an enviable track record of delivering fundamental scientific results across a multitude of areas, including lightning, exoplanets, solar physics, extragalactic astronomy,
cosmic rays, ionospheric physics, and pulsars & transients. ASTRON and its partners
in the International LOFAR Telescope collaboration are now in the midst of upgrading
the system to produce LOFAR2.0, an even more capable and flexible instrument that
promises to continue this record. This paper describes the data services that have been
developed over the last decade in support of LOFAR operations and plans for upgrading
the system to meet the needs of the community in the LOFAR2.0 era and beyond. |
