Developing Heliophysics Standards and Cross-science Collaborations Workshop
Julie Barnum
Hi all,
New meeting announcement for mid-August of this year:
Title: Developing Heliophysics Standards and Cross-science Collaborations Workshop
Meeting Details: University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA, on Aug 11-15, 2025
We invite mission and modeling software developers to the Developing Heliophysics Standards and Cross-science Collaborations Workshop in beautiful Iowa City, IA on Aug 11-15, 2025. The Developing Heliophysics Standards and Cross-science Collaborations Workshop aims to provide a space where the modeling and mission development communities can discuss potential software standards in Heliophysics and discover new collaborations to overcome current technical challenges. This workshop focuses on improving Open Science practices for mission-related and model-related software development in Heliophysics, including solar physics, space physics, ITM sciences, and the closely related sciences. Attendees are expected to be involved in either mission-related or model-related software in Heliophysics at any career stage from a range of specializations in software. This workshop will give attendees a unique opportunity to discuss potential collaborations on software with others across institutions and to give them a place to discuss what best practices and standards would help them collaborate with and build on other’s work more efficiently.
We invite the modeling and missions software communities in Heliophysics and closely related sciences to this hybrid workshop to join the conversation and discover new collaborators. The workshop will be hosted in Van Allen Hall on the beautiful campus of the University of Iowa in Iowa City, IA, USA from Monday, Aug 11 to Friday Aug 15, 2025. There is no registration fee, but registration is required to attend. Attendance in person is limited by the venue capacity, with priority given to mission and modeling software developers.
Registration is now open. The registration deadline for in-person attendance is July 27, 2025. For virtual attendees, the registration deadline is the Thursday before the conference, Aug 7, 2025. Hotel reservations at GSA rates and plentiful food options will be available within walking distance of the workshop location. The deadline to submit abstracts is 6 weeks before the workshop on June 30, 2025. No abstracts are being solicited for mission-related software due to the nature of those sessions.
