Toward a Global Space Exploration Program: A Stepping Stone Approach, Committee on Space Research, June 2010

“In the preparation phase toward a global space exploration program, COSPAR should promote the development of synergistic science programs with open and full access to each others’ data... The International Planetary Data Alliance (IPDA) is recognized by COSPAR as the official body for definition of planetary science archive standards. All those efforts could play an important role in standardization and construction of interoperable systems for a future global space exploration program.”

I N T E R N A T I O N A L P L A N E T A R Y D A T A A L L I A N C E ( I P D A)http://planetarydata.org/

Comments• No Chinese coming

• New chair will be selected, most likely from Europe

• Continue to focus IPDA on a) internationalization of PDS standards and b) coordination on archiving and interoperabilty

• More work needed on executing a process for review, response and voting– Gopala Krishina has done some leg work on this, but it needs more attention– Some formalization of the TEG occurred last year with a charter and quarterly

telecons

• Discussions are planned for DPS on IPDA
