From Vision to Tools:
ASTRONET Roadmap Status
Mike Bode Astrophysics Research Institute, Liverpool JMU, UK (Leader, WP 3.1)


Infrastructure Roadmap
Objective:
­ To assemble a plan for the development of the infrastructures that will enable European Astronomy to deliver the Science Vision
Taking the Science Vision as the point of departure - Covering both ground & space-based facilities - Including AVO, (super)computing, theory, HR issues, outreach - Incorporating existing ESO, ESA, ASPERA etc. plans as far as possible, and having global perspective
-

Develop implementation plan with agencies, EU, OECD, Global Science Forum,...
ASTRONET SV Symposium Poitiers January 23rd 2007


Background & Motivation
What facilities/resources do we need to deliver the Science Vision? A comprehensive, but realistic, Plan is required Needs input and support of the Agencies and the Community Not an easy task (!), but if we do it well, it should lead not only to more effective and efficient planning, (including international links) but potentially more funds into our subject
ASTRONET SV Symposium Poitiers January 23rd 2007


Modus Operandi
Similar structure to Science Vision Panels in defined areas, typically 8-10 members Report to Working Group comprising Panel Chairs, Co-chairs, Members at Large Community and Agency interaction (see below)
ASTRONET SV Symposium Poitiers January 23rd 2007


Panels reporting to Working Group
Panels will (as appropriate):
Assemble an overview of facilities in their area which may be of relevance. This would include, where possible, timelines, costs and technological readiness Assemble information on priorities identified by relevant external bodies (e.g. ASPERA, ESO, ESA etc.) Assess which facilities, or part thereof, would be capable of delivering aspects of the Science Vision Provide a prioritised list (possibly in broad categories of prioritisation) of facilities and other infrastructures identified in their area, for transmission to the Working Group Assess the Human Resource needs of their area Highlight any areas of Industrial Relevance
ASTRONET SV Symposium Poitiers January 23rd 2007


Working Group will then:
Assemble information on priorities identified by national Funding Agencies and also on the likely funding envelopes available Receive and synthesise the priority lists of the Panels to optimise delivery of the Science Visiion. This would include consideration of the overall human on. resource needs Identify areas of synergy and areas where technological development and industrial involvement/relevance needed or appropriate Discuss the draft priority list with the Funding Agencies at an intermediate stage Workshop Refine the list following the Workshop to provide a publicly available draft document Organise a Roadmap Symposium for the community to have their input Undertake further refinement, in conjunction with the Agencies, in order to produce the final version for passing to Workpackage 3.2

Some Questions and Concerns
Should we involve "outsiders" in Panels? Verification of cost estimates/timescales of major projects? How do we ensure "emerging" projects are not left out? How do we best ensure effective international (extra-European) co-ordination? What is the optimum revision cycle period?
ASTRONET SV Symposium Poitiers January 23rd 2007


And Finally... Why should anyone take note?
If we do this correctly, overall funding for new European infrastructures might increase & dreams come true (earlier). European participation in the largest, global, astronomy projects in the future will be facilitated by long-term planning and coordination, backed by the agencies.
