AAL is pleased to host the 2025 Australian LSST Workshop, held both in-person at the University of Melbourne as well as online from Tuesday 11 Feb – Wednesday 12 Feb 2025.
AAL and the ADACS-Swinburne and ADACS-Macquarie nodes are providing in-kind software engineering effort to Rubin Observatory, as well as hosting an Independent Data Access Centre (IDAC) in Australia, funded through a combination of an ARC LIEF grant and NCRIS funding. This enables LSST data access rights for 47 Australian PIs, and a further 188 Junior Associates (JAs). This workshop will provide a showcase for our community of PIs and JAs to describe the work they are doing to prepare for LSST science, including participation in the Data Preview (DP0) process, and to hear updates on progress from Rubin Observatory management. In-person attendance is strongly encouraged, as there will be a focus on hands-on engagement and the use of the Rubin Science Platform; however on-line participation will be enabled.
