High Energy in the Virtual Observatory workshop

The objective of the workshop is to define and validate the content of an IVOA ObsCore extension for the High Energy Astronomy domain, prepared in the context of the IVOA High Energy Interest Groug (HEIG). The HEIG will provide an endorsed note with use cases and proposed data search attributes specific to the HE domain.

We will focus on use cases that participate to the proposition of dedicated HE attributes to extend ObsCore, and validate the table of attributes.

The process to standardized ObsCore extensions will also be discussed, in preparation of a session at the next IVOA meeting (2-6 June in College Park, USA).
