The NCSA/Illinois Science Survey Group is a group of astronomers and data scientists from the NCSA and the University of Illinois astronomy department working on large astronomical surveys, particularly DES and LSST. These meetings provide a forum to update each other on production challenges, introduce new analysis tools and discuss the scientific applications of these exciting new datasets.
We hold these meetings at 9 AM the fourth Tuesday of every month in NCSA room 2100 (the Integrated Project Team Lab).
Generally, any member of the NCSA, the Illinois astronomy department or a related department with a strong interest in astronomical surveys, particularly DES or LSST, is welcome
