Member Expertise Roster

This is a table of the members showing their background expertise. We desire to have broad membership so that we cover all of the populated continents, the wavelength regimes in use in astronomy, major forms in which data are organized[fn:1] and also the ways in which the data format may be utilized[fn:2].

[fn:1] Choosing from “data cube”, “image”, “table”, and “spectra”. This list is the minimal one we need to insure expertise in. Feel free to add in other less common means of organizing the data in which you are expert (ex. “timeseries”, “event list”, “database”, …)

[fn:2] Choosing from “application”, “data processing”, “data capture” and “data preservation”.
