FIRST HAND USERS *

Who are the users of the proposed technology? Do they already exist, or are they an imagined, future category of person? How many users do you imagine? What is the relationship of your users to the people submitting the proposal? What is their availability during the summer? (MAX 920 characters)

SUCCESS METRICS *

Describe how the results will be measured. Will the effort result in a performance improvement, or greater efficiency? Will the work lead to new insights? Will the effort change how your group does its work? (MAX 920 characters)

PRODUCT(S) DELIVERED

Our collaborations usually culminate with a working prototype based on actual data delivered at the beginning of the project. Describe your initial vision for the final product to be developed. (MAX 920 characters)

[DATA CHARACTERIZATION] Description *

Characterize your current data. What is the storage format – text files, data cube, database? Where are the data located – local repo, PDS, AWS instance, ES cluster? How many properties are in an example record? How many records are there? What is the total storage size of the data? (MAX 920 characters)

[DATA CHARACTERIZATION] Availability *

[DATA CHARACTERIZATION] Sub-Setting *

Can a useful subset of the data be made for the summer program?

Yes (will be able to supply a relatively manageable size by beginning of summer)

No (data IS A MANAGEABLE size, and should be used in its entirety)

No (data is LARGE, and DETAIL MUST BE PRESERVED for success of project)

FOLLOW-ON ACTIVITIES

Describe opportunities for follow-on funding? Are you interested in pursuing funding apart from the visualization program, or jointly in collaboration with the visualization program organizers. If available, describe follow-on funding programmatic sources, dollar amount available, and submission dates. (MAX 920 characters)
