| Abstract: |
The emergence of time-domain multi-messenger (astro)physics requires for new, improved ways of interchanging scheduling information, in order to allow more efficient collaborations between the various teams. Currently space- and ground-based observatories provide target visibilities and schedule information via dedicated web pages in various, (observatory-specific) formats.
With this project we aim to: i) standardise the exchange of information about observational schedules and instrument set-ups, and ii) standardise the automation of visibility checking for multiple facilities. To meet these goals, we propose to use VO protocols (ObsTAP-like) to write the services necessary to expose these data to potential client applications and to develop
visibility servers across the different facilities. |
