The ASPIICS instrument follows an open data policy which means that you can freely use the data. Nevertheless we list here a few recommendations on good practices.
- A reference to the ASPIICS instrument papers (see references below) must be mentioned, as well as an explicit mention of the version of the used calibration software.
- Publications using the ASPIICS data must include the following acknowledgement: “ASPIICS is a project of the Centre Spatial de Liège and the Royal Observatory of Belgium funded by the Belgian Federal Science Policy Office (BELSPO)”
- For bibliographical reasons, it is requested to mention ‘PROBA-3’ and ‘ASPIICS’ in the abstract with this exact orthography. This is to strengthen future database searches.
-
Finally, it is suggested (but left facultative) to external data users to involve an ASPIICS co-I in their analysis team and as co-author. This will optimise the communication of the latest instrument expertise to the external data users and allow to coordinate between different analysis teams.
