Workshop Title: HDF5 as hyperspectral data analysis format
Dates: 11, 12, 13 January 2010
Venue: ESRF, Grenoble
Goals:
* Bring together scientists and software developers to find
solutions to data format issues from the data analysis point of view,
* put in common different algorithms for analyzing hyper-spectral
data to see how they could be extended to different techniques,
* find the most suitable ways to exchange data based on the type of
analysis to be performed,
* do hands-on coding for the implementation and/or testing of
discussed approaches, ranging from the data format to the analysis
algorithms.
The aim of the workshop is not to define how data should be stored at
acquisition time or for long-term archival. However, there are several
overlapping issues and at least the first morning of the workshop will
most likely be dedicated to present and discuss HDF5 and NeXus.
Participants: The workshop is open to everyone, but limited to a
maximum of 30 participants.
Registration and a draft programme will soon be available on the ESRF
web site.
Financing: The workshop is free of charge and will be financed from the
VEDAC networking activity of the FP7-ELISA project. Participants from
partner laboratories can cover their travel and subsistence expenses
from the VEDAC budget allocation of their laboratory. Non VEDAC
participants will have to cover their travel and subsistence expenses
themselves.
