The Spectrum of LSST Data Analysis Challenges: Kiloscale to Petascale (original) (raw)
The unprecedented science opportunities enabled by LSST's wide-fast-deep mode of operation are accompanied by equally unprecedented data analysis challenges, due to the huge size and synoptic scope of LSST data products. The most obvious challenges are those associated with processing the petabyte-scale fundamental LSST image data. But the challenges will not end with the production of official LSST catalogs and databases. Science with LSST data will present new data analysis challenges spanning a broad range of sizes, types, and complexity, requiring innovative methodological research across this full range. We present representative examples of LSST data analysis problems of various scales, displaying some of the diversity of astroinformatics/astrostatistics research astronomers using LSST data must undertake.
