Account approval to access data

Hi. Last week, I submitted an LSST account request for Trifid Nebula spectral data. Logging in via ORCID. Approval is pending, and I’m eager to proceed today. Could you confirm the status, or expedite access?

Hi @Quantesla1, if you were looking for the Trifid Nebula imaging, you do not need an RSP account to see it, as it is available here:

If that’s what you were looking for, please mark this reply post as the solution to this topic?

You only need an account in the Rubin Science Platform if you are a scientist or student with Rubin data rights and want to analyze the LSSTComCam data released as Data Preview 1 (dp1.lsst.io), which does not include the Trifid Nebula (or any spectra). If that is the case for you, then I would need more information to follow up on your RSP account request (full name, institutional affiliation, email domain). Note that the most common cause of delay is step 8 of the process (verification of Rubin data rights): If data rights are unclear, you will receive an email with the subject “Confirming your data rights for the Rubin Science Platform”. Rubin staff will help you through the data rights verification process. Please check your spam folder.

Hi Melissa

Thanks for the quick and detailed response. I’ll test to see if this data is sufficient. For the current 2 protocols, I needed access to the M8 and M20 data. I verified they were present when I checked with Skyviewer. There were future experiments I needed to conduct, which aren’t yet stated in protocol format.

I should have data rights, as I submitted my ORCID and gave software access to lsst for my ORCID profile. My ORCID profile is also registered with arXiv and I’m a validated independent researcher on Researchgate. I hope that would be sufficient.

Best regards

Rob

Hi @Quantesla1 ,

I can see that your RSP account petition is on step 8 of the process, data rights verification. We were unable to confirm your data rights status based on your application – having an ORCID is not sufficient. More information on the Rubin data policy and who has data rights.
