Team
Our Team
Our team of domain scientists, geoinformaticians, data curators and software engineers share a passion for the management and stewardship of astromaterials data. With decades of combined experience in data acquisition, data management, database and software system design, and scientific analysis our team aspires to support new and innovative discoveries in planetary sciences. We work closely with our user communities to ensure that we continually optimize our tools and services to meet their needs. We also actively participate in the community of data stewards and cyberinfrastructure specialists to ensure that our systems meet evolving standards for interoperability and information sharing.
We encourage an open and responsive dialog with our community of stakeholders and always welcome feedback.
Overview
The Astromaterials Data System (AstroMat) is a data infrastructure to store, curate, and provide access to laboratory data acquired on samples curated in the Astromaterials Collection of the Johnson Space Center. AstroMat will contain data from past, present, and future studies. AstroMat is developed and operated at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University by a team that has long-term experiences in the development and operation of data systems for geochemical, petrological, mineralogical, and geochronological laboratory data acquired on physical samples – EarthChem and PetDB. AstroMat aims to facilitate discovery, access, publication, attribution, and preservation of laboratory data acquired on astromaterials samples. AstroMat will:
AstroMat’s services include:
The development of the Astromaterials Data System is ongoing over 5 years with different project components progressing in parallel in three development phases to successively develop and implement the various system components and incorporate data for all collections. For each development phase, we have identified major milestones for the different project components. The timing of deliverables accounts for the interdependence of system components.
