Cassini mission looking for input from amateur processors, UX designer for archive wants to understand how people will use it Options

[robtapella]

Hi everyone—

I am working with the Cassini team at JPL which, as you know, is moving into end-of-mission planning. I’m currently learning about how scientists search-for, calibrate, and analyze data from the PDS. My goal is to recommend search-tools or related products that will support the final archival data products. I would also like to find the most important pain-points with the existing site.

I am looking for people:
- Who have analyzed Cassini data
- Who are NOT on a Cassini instrument team
- Who found and downloaded the data from a public archive/repository (e.g. from PDS—not from one of the instrument team archives, and not via email or a publication—the search process is the foundation of what I am trying to understand)
- Who would like to walk me through an example of _how_ they have searched for, calibrated, and/or analyzed data in the past

If you fit this profile, and you’d like to help out, please contact me via email.

Feel free to ask any clarification questions here and I can answer them for everyone.
