EOSCpilot LOFAR

Unlocking the LOFAR Long Term Archive

The goal of this science demonstrator is to empower scientists to process radio astronomy data in the LOFAR archive using (distributed) computational resources as well as to improve upon the current workflows and data services. As a results, users will be able to generate new scientific results based on archived data products more easily than before.

This work is a part of the project "EOSCpilot" funded from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 739563.
