Log in and get familiar with the newly launched Roman Research Nexus! Roman will deliver an estimated 20 PB of data in its primary 5 year mission. In just one month, Roman will generate roughly twice the data volume produced by Hubble over 30 years. The Nexus aims to provide the science community with a cloud-based science platform to efficiently access, explore, and analyze Roman's large volume of data. The Nexus includes pre-installed software, Jupyter notebook tutorials, access to simulated datasets, team workspaces, and real-time collaboration tools. Once Roman science operations start, all Roman data will be accessible through the Nexus. In this webinar, users will learn how to log-in, navigate the Nexus, and utilize the broader data analysis ecosystem to maximize their science potential.
Each training session will last one hour and consist of a short demonstration (~20-25 minutes) with plenty of time for Q&A with Roman staff. For this webinar, the agenda will include:
- Introduction to Nexus
- Walk-through of the different Nexus science workflows and Jupyter notebooks
- Overview of existing ground + simulated datasets
- Details about the Nexus credit system relevant to Cycle 1 CfP
- Enable real-time collaboration with your teams
- Real-time demos running notebooks, working with data, and setting up your own environments
The training series is designed for users with all levels of experience. We will be providing a live, hands-on demo that can be viewed on its own. However, if a user wishes to actively follow along, the Roman Research Nexus is publicly available. We encourage you to sign on and familiarize yourself with the Nexus in advance. Additional documentation can be found on RDox.
