Application of TRUST Principles in LISIRD

The LASP Interactive Solar IRradiance Datacenter (LISIRD), lasp.colorado.edu/lisird, is a website where researchers can discover, visualize, and download solar data from a variety of space missions, instruments, models, and laboratories. LISIRD focuses on making heliophysics research as effortless as possible by making solar data openly available and easy to analyze through an intuitive user interface, detailed metadata, interactive plotting capabilities, and a catalog of over 75 datasets.

This poster will discuss how LISIRD currently demonstrates, and aspires to better comply with, the TRUST Principles (Transparency, Responsibility, User Community, Sustainability, and Technology). Topics will include metadata efforts to improve dataset transparency, usability testing to further understand the needs of user communities, and how we designed our current technology stack to make development and maintenance easier and more sustainable.
