Project Book Revision -- Wootten

This needs to be done within the next month. Chapters which the science group has traditionally participated in include:

Table of Contents

3 Calibration

1. General Calibration Issues (Holdaway & Wootten) (alternative as HTML ) 2001-02-06

This chapter will be revised in the light of the June PDR last year. Mark has proposed a plan of action.

2. Calibration Hardware (Payne, Vaccari et al.) (alternative HTML ) 2001-02-02

This needs input from IRAM on the semi-transparent vane, in my opinion. It should have something about the optical pointing telescopes also. It should also include WLM material from Cambridge, IMHO. However, I think it is inevitable that some items mentioned in 3.1 won't be addressed yet in 3.2--FTS for instance.

13 Data Analysis: Imaging Requirements (Holdaway 2000-04-24 & Wootten)

This chapter should make use of the Science Software Requirements Documents. Steve has looked this over.

14 Site Characterization (PDF) also available as 2001-08-01 HTML format (Radford)

I think Simon has revised this.

Array Configuration (Min Yun)

15 NB: Significant revision expected after Feb 2001 PDR and Jan 2002 CDR.  Text is available.
