SKA data challenges workshop: analysis, archive, and access basics

30 September- 02October 2019 - Istituto di Radioastronomia Bologna, Italy

The "SKA Data Challenges workshop" aims to be an event for astronomers and engineers interested to apprehend the SKA basics. Taking the opportunity offered by the "First SKA data challenge", we will address most of the main issues associated with data transfer, analysis, archiving, and data access that will be important for preparing to work with SKA data. The main topics that will be discussed are

  • SKA basics (interferometry with SKA)
  • Overview of Science Working Groups and on-going activities with Pathfinders and Precursors
  • SKA Data Challenges
  • Support and interaction facilities for astronomers
  • Design of a SKA Regional Centre in Europe, AENEAS and other projects
  • Big Data, network and storage
  • Archives in astronomy
  • Pipelining and containerization
  • Machine Learning, data exploitation
  • Open Access and collaborative mentality


We encourage in particular PhD students and young researchers to attend: they are also welcome to contribute with short presentations and/or posters.
