Collaborations

LOFAR

Since 2009, ASTRON and JSC have collaborated to establish and operate a long-term archive for LOFAR data at JSC. This archive has been essential in supporting groundbreaking scientific research, including the publication of a new sky map in 2022, based on data from the LOFAR Two-Metre Sky Survey (LoTSS).
