While waiting for more people to join RH shared the latest news:

 

- It’s official now: Some DAPHNE project money has been officially released for contribution to SciCat development. The developer in concern from the company will have daily stand ups with Max (ESS) and a weekly report is made to me about progress. Plan remains to share progress in a biweekly schedule to DAPHNE/DESY community (2024-11-01 would be the first Friday to hold it, on Monday, 4th November, RH will share it). Details will follow.

 

 

- Mora presented metadata for P10, basically for the 2 types of metadata:

  1. RAW (overview on slide 4, following slides in more detsails)

    1. s4: lighter colored (purple) boxes require active user info.

    2. s6: Scientific metadata is desired, in red: optional information

Relevant parameters for the user to identifiy his dataset:

exposure time and transmission (== attenuation)

 

Typical data structure:

    • Per scicat dataset want to store a “file” (== “measurement”, he named it “scan”) and the number that it consists of e.g. 1500 “frames”.

       

  1. PROCESSED contains analysis specific processings like pointer to analysis code.

 

After discussions the following became clearer:

  • Need to use standardised names for scientific metadata and -to start- constrain to what’s available.

    Follow up: Fabian W and Jan K will meet to do that. Mora will iterate also with users and come back to report in SCT.

  • Cover with 8 to 10 entries information of processed datasets – This data type is for analysis more relevant to users. Check for standardised ontologies (follow up from Anton B comments) and iterate with users.

 

Question to follow up as well:

  • What is needed that the user input e.g. IGSN, i.e. some information about the sample?
