Invited speakers Kristen Coppin (Univ. of Hertfordshire), James Dunlop (IfA Edinburgh), Chris Hayward (Flatiron Institute), Wei-Hao Wang (Academia Sinica), Jack Sayers (Caltech), Nick Scoville (Caltech) Workshop Goals For each survey (UDS and LSS), the workshop participants make recommendations to the TolTEC science team for 4 major decisions:
  1. 1. Contiguous or multiple fields
  2. 2. Biased or blind fields
  3. 3. Area and depth of survey
  4. 4. Prioritized list of fields for the survey (include more than can be allocated to account for schedulability and other issue)
