Initial Summary of the Ground-based O/IR System Roadmap Committee’s Survey of the Community Now Available

The image above is from the Ground-based System Roadmap Committee’s summary of the results from their November 2011 survey of the community’s use of the U.S. System of O/IR facilities. Shown are the US telescopes used by more than 3% of the approximate 1000 U.S. based survey respondents. The size of each ellipse represents the number of users, while the thickness of the lines between telescopes is proportional to the number of common users. Further details about this figure and the entire survey may be found on the System Roadmap Committee page.
