InSight mission Open Science data workshop

[Benjamin Fernando]

We are running a free, in-person, one-day workshop on accessing and using seismic data from NASA’s InSight mission to Mars on Sunday, April 13 in Baltimore, Maryland. This is immediately before the Seismological Society of America meeting, but SSA membership and/or registration are not required for this event. 

This workshop is intended for planetary scientists and terrestrial seismologists who want to use InSight data products and catalogues in their own research, and will not assume any prior knowledge of martian geophysics. The afternoon will include time to undertake a supervised ‘mini-project’ on using InSight data in a research context; other topics covered will include data access, processing, inversion, and modelling. 

The application form is below and will remain open until 23:59 (Anywhere on Earth Time) on Friday, 31 January. We will confirm acceptances by February 7. We hope to be able to provide travel support to some US-based Early-Career Researchers, this is not guaranteed but interested applicants can indicate this on the form. 

This workshop is being supported by the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Johns Hopkins University. Questions may be directed to Benjamin Fernando via bfer...@jh.edu.  Form: https://forms.office.com/r/TNRCKfP8yp
