ESA Datalabs: a new science exploitation platform for heliophysicists

ESA Datalabs is a collaborative scientific platform of the European Space Agency to exploit data across the ESA science directorate missions' archives (astronomy, planetary and heliophysics). ESA Datalabs allows you to bring your code to the data under a private account, shareable with colleagues. Large amount of data such as GAIA catalogues can be easily mounted and searchable, allowing large scale scientific investigations impossible to achieve on a regular laptop. It also provides multiple tools to access, process and visualize JWST data and was used during the commissioning of the MIRI and NIRSpec instruments. In other words, it handles both public and restricted access data. In the heliophysics domain, data from a few missions are already mounted, including all public data from the Solar Orbiter mission. A few Jupyter notebooks are already available to help the community making use of the full capabilities of the archives. More will be made available in the future. Developed over the past few years, ESA Datalabs is scheduled to be public to the scientific community by Fall 2022 or early Winter 2023.
