European Radio Astronomy Technical ForumThe communication, training and scientific interaction between engineers and scientists involved in the development and operation of radio-astronomical instruments represents a key issue in keeping these facilities at a world-class technical level.
The main activity of the RadioNet3 European Radio Astronomy Technical Forum will be to organise and support meetings and workshops. These meetings will help to identify synergies and develop complementary capabilities at the observatories, to determine how the pooling of resources might lead to common solutions for common problems and to share best practice. Furthermore, the training of young people will also form a crucial part of the work programme as well as the dissemination of expertise in special sessions at large international conferences. The forum will maintain and update a series of web pages. These pages will be the central reference location for calls for contributions, technical material and meeting registration and event announcements.
