ASKAP 2016: The future of radio astronomy surveys

ASKAP conference group photo

CSIRO's Australian SKA Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope, currently being commissioned, is delivering unique and exciting scientific data.
A series of major sky surveys will begin in 2016.

This conference is an opportunity to share cutting-edge results from ASKAP and to discuss future strategies for observing and data sharing in large astronomical surveys.

ASKAP 2016 will:

  • Plan key aspects of the ASKAP science surveys with the user community.
  • Showcase new results from ASKAP Commissioning and Early Science.
  • Provide training in the use of Virtual Observatory tools.
  • Discuss astronomical surveys at other wavelengths that will complement ASKAP.
  • Bring together international experts on large astronomical surveys and exploiting complex data sets.
