1. RBSP GAO Review 11 June 20091 PSBR data sharing plan Which products do you intend to make available for use by other teams in their data analysis? –We intend to provide our L0-L4 data and supporting information as specified in the PSBR/RPS PDMP. We have an informal agreement with ECT to share such data as may improve data reduction. The need for such data, and its precise form, cannot be defined until the flight models are subjected to beams. When will these products be available? –L0-L4 data will be available as specified in the PSBR/RPS PDMP. Schedule for data provided to ECT cannot be defined at this time.

2. RBSP GAO Review 11 June 20092 PSBR data sharing plan What products do you need from other teams? –We will need calibrated MAG data. We will also need the L*/K values provided by the ECT SOC if we are to provide our data in coordinates derived from a dynamic Tsyganenko-Sitnov model. When do you need these products to be available? –We will re-run our analysis algorithms each time a new version of the MAG or L*/K data is made available. When MAG data is not available, we will use a static model (OPQ). Therefore, we have no specific timeline requirement from MAG. As for L*/K, we do not have internal use for dynamic models, and we have the capability to create static model coordinates ourselves. We will just create the products that require L*/K in a dynamic model as those coordinates become available from ECT.

3. RBSP GAO Review 11 June 20093 PSBR data sharing plan What other products do you need from outside RBSP – Indices/IMF/supporting data. –GCR measurements (for on-orbit calibration) –Solor proton event measurements (supports science study, but we could do it with RBSP measurements only). What software, tools and models (if any) do you intend to make available for use by other teams in their data analysis? –None have been requested. However, we do contribute to the IRBEM library, which is an open-source, shared resource that may be used by other teams (ECT?). When will these be available? –Upon request. What software, tools and models would you like to be available for use? –The scope of this question is unclear. We are not expecting any software from any of the other instrument teams. From NASA we are expecting SPICE, which is already available on the Web. We are expecting to acquire the GSE-OS SOC template from APL or GSE-OS Inc.
