2012-07-28 Notes from Discussions

• Data storage formats
  • sasCIF
  • newer standard for publishing bio SAXS data in IUCr journals (doesn't specify format, but includes data validation)
  • canSAS1d
  • NeXus
  • Diffraction Data Deposition Working Group and its impact for SAS data standardization

• NeXus main page
  • How to find links to Definitions and Examples? Make better main page links.
    • NAPI examples don't work (Ron Ghosh). What is the problem? Fix?
    • Needs more help oriented for data consumers

• IUCr World Database of Crystallographers
  • Is this list contemporary?
    • Who are the consumers of this information?
    • Are standard terms codified?
    • Search for "small-angle" or "small angle" is not as useful as "SAXS" or "SANS"
    • SAS does not consider itself under "Crystallography"
