Data and Code Group

A “Data and Code Group” has been established within Work Package 4 to develop and implement data and code standards across ACS Project 2 and to coordinate the associated infrastructure, support and reporting to management.

Communication

The group meets once a month via Microsoft Teams (see minutes/ and agenda.md) and chats on that platform between meetings (reach out to damien.irving@csiro.au if you'd like access to the chat and/or invites to meetings). Action items are managed via tagged issues.

Documentation

Major documents are hosted within this directory:

• data_roadmap.md: How we plan to manage/store ACS data
• data_standards.md: Plans for dataset/file metadata standards
• code_roadmap.md: How we plan to manage ACS code
• review.md: How we plan to review ACS data and code to make sure it meets our standards

Additional notes on various topics are hosted in notes/ or as tagged issues.
