LSST EPO will produce video clips, images, and 3D models to be used throughout the Operations website. Assets will also be provided in formats that support emerging industry standards (IMERSA Dome Maser, AVM, Data2Dome) to enable content creators at informal science centers to freely incorporate them as they deem best.

People-Powered Research
Public volunteers help make science happen by contributing to real research projects Citizen science can be a research tool enabling more science with LSST LSST EPO will enable researchers to initiate Citizen science projects using any LSST data
SpaceWarps.org exists now using HSC (LSST-like) data
LSST EPO has partnered with Zooniverse to maximize flexibility in the types of projects that can be created by LSST citizen science principal investigators.
Lead by Aprajita Verma (Oxford)
