INTRODUCTION Software developed for LINC-NIRVANA Could be extended to other instruments Motivation Schemes Look and Feel Features (Real and Wish) Conclusions03/24/2014Gaessler/Pavlov “Unified OPS” LBT Users Meeting2

MOTIVATION(FOR LINC-NIRVANA )P. Angle Complex observations0 60 -60 Time Queue observing! A tool to prepare observations is needed!03/24/2014Gaessler/Pavlov “Unified OPS” LBT Users Meeting3

MOTIVATION(FOR LBT)One for all instead of one for eachThe user will appreciateQueue observation will need it:To keep the overview of the situationTo be flexible and fast for instrument changeTo keep trackBeside that: Easier to maintain for LBTO03/24/2014Gaessler/Pavlov “Unified OPS” LBT Users Meeting4

CONCLUSIONSOBSERVATION PREPARATION SOFTWARE (OPS)Queue Observing benefits from unified OPS LINC-NIRVANA OPS exists (LOPS) LOPS is more than just an Observation Blockbuilder LOPS has a very flexible underlying frameworkLOPS could be extended to other instruments03/24/2014Gaessler/Pavlov “Unified OPS” LBT Users Meeting16
