DP0.2 Tutorials

These tutorials and user guides are for DP0 delegates using the Rubin Science Platform (RSP) deployed at the Interim Data Facility (IDF), the Google cloud.

Before following these tutorials, delegates should have gotten their RSP accounts, be familiar with this list of RSP Risks and Caveats and the basic components of the RSP, and know how and where to get support. Additional information can be found at the Rubin Science Platform Documentation page.

Jupyter notebook tutorials

The tutorial notebooks in the rubin-dp0 GitHub Organization’s tutorial-notebooks repository will be available by default in a folder in each user’s home directory in the RSP’s Notebook Aspect. See that repository’s README file for descriptions of the notebooks. Also, visit Rubin Science Platform notebook aspect documentation to get more information on setting up an account, using the LSST pipelines, the software environment, and more information on the project.

Acknowledgments: Many of these tutorial notebooks were originally developed by Stack Club members and have been altered and updated to be appropriate for DP0. If these notebooks are used for a journal publication, please consider adding an acknowledgment that gives credit to the original creator(s) as listed in the notebook’s header.

Portal aspect demonstrations

An overview of the RSP Portal functionality is provided in this Introduction to the RSP Portal Aspect. Below are two step-by-step demonstrations of how to use the Portal for science investigations. You may also find information about the portal aspect in the about firefly page on the Rubin Science Platform Documentation page.
