Abstract

Space observation data includes research data such as stars, galaxies, Sun, space plasma, planets, and minor bodies observed through space missions, including processing and utilizing the observation data. Astronomy and space science observation systems are getting larger, and space mission opportunities and data size are increasing. Accordingly, the need for systematic and efficient management of space observation data is growing. Therefore, in Korea, a strategy and policy for space observation data should be established. As a stage of preparation, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s data strategy, which developed from extensive understanding and long-term experience for space observation data, was analyzed. Based on the analysis results, we propose a strategic direction and 10 recommendations for Korean space observation data strategies that will be the basis for establishing space observation data policies in the future.

우주관측 자료는 우주 임무를 통해 관측한 별, 은하, 태양, 우주 플라즈마(plasma), 달, 행성 등의 연구 자료로 관측 자료를 가공 및 활용한 것까지 포함한다. 국내외 천문우주 관측시스템이 대형화되고, 우주 임무의 확대 및 자료 용량 증가(빅 데이터)로 인해 우주관측 자료의 체계적이고 효율적인 관리에 대한 필요성이 증대되고 있다. 이에 우리나라도 우주관측 자료의 전략을 세우고, 이를 바탕으로 우주관측 자료 정책을 수립해야 한다. 이를 위한 준비 단계로 우주관측 자료에 대한 광범위한 이해와 다년간의 경험으로부터 발전된 미 항공우주국(National Aeronautics and Space Administration, NASA)의 자료 전략을 분석하였다. NASA의 자료 전략 분석 결과를 바탕으로 우리나라의 우주관측 자료 전략 방향과 앞으로 우주관측 자료 정책을 수립하는 데 기반이 될 우주관측 자료 전략 권고 사항 10가지를 제안한다.
