AKjDPG 2: Hacky Hour (joint session AKjDPG/AGI)

AKjDPG 2.4: Invited Talk

Thursday, March 23, 2023, 16:00–16:45, ZEU/0148

Open data and open-source tools throughout research data life cycle: KCDC example — •Victoria Tokareva — Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Institute for Astroparticle Physics, Karlsruhe, Germany

Open science essentials include open data, open source software, open access materials, open educational resources, etc. They provide substantial benefits to society like reproducibility of research, increased transparency and public acceptance of studies, simplified publication process, and enhanced public education. Ultimately, new opportunities become available for unique interdisciplinary studies performed by large diverse teams of specialists on publicly available datasets. Established in 2013, the KASCADE Cosmic Ray Data Centre (KCDC) exists simultaneously as an open archive for data of high-energy astroparticle physics experiments (such as KASCADE, KASCADE-Grande, LOPES, Maket-Ani, etc.), open source software and a web portal providing access to open educational resources. KCDC allows data selection with custom user data cuts using GUI or REST API and interactive online analysis of the selected data with integrated Jupyter Notebooks. From this talk, one can learn more about KCDC's functionality and get better understanding of open science and research data life cycle concepts. An example of machine learning based analysis employing the KCDC platform and deployment of the results as an application using Streamlit will be discussed. This work is partially supported by the DFG fund ``NFDI 39/1" for the PUNCH4NFDI consortium.
