Info

This is the Operations Roadmap for the SRDP Project (For the Development Roadmap go here.) This is meant to be a living document that we update as opportunities are identified. ALMA standard calibration and imaging are performed by the ALMA project and are not identified here. In each wave new capabilities are shown in green.
