[aprossi (Angelo Pio Rossi)]

The idea of the session is to provide (also with @luca.penasa @Riccardo_Pozzobon, et al.) some updates and discuss informally the following aspects, related to the 2021 GMAP/PLANMAP Winter School:

• Provide a short summary of what the GMAP winter school was about
• Overview/sharing of materials from the school
• Arrange a quick Mappy hands-on (if participants want to)
• Discuss possible follow-up / joint activities

Please feel free to suggest anything you might want to add/discuss.

For the birds-of-a-feather tomorrow, please feel free to highlight Open Source or openly accessible) tools for:

• Base mapping
• Map-making (contacts, limits, symbology)
• Specific tasks (e.g. crater size-frequency analysis, e.g. Craterstats
• Layout

Feel also free to list here (before/during/after sesion) or discuss at the session what you feel could need more efforts wrt documentation, tools availability, etc.

Thanks to all participants.

There was no time to arrange a Mappy demo after the discussion, nor to touch base on ADAM/NEANIAS, among other things.

• If interested in having a Mappy hands-on, please reach out to @luca.penasa or @aprossi and join one of the upcoming monthly GMAP Community calls - there is also a GMAP mailing list, if you want to be kept informed.
• If you want to help using/validating ADAM, please see https://explorer-space.adamplatform.eu/ + https://tinyurl.com/2fv9dvhs

For the rest, post-PDW/PSIDA one could continue the discussion on #planetary-mapping on Slack
