<h2>A Kavli Futures Symposium</h2>
<article>
<p>The evolution of astrophysics into a subject driven by large surveys is accelerating, as facilities and missions now under construction threaten to provide a flood of data. At the same time, it has become clear than involving large numbers of the public in 'citizen science' can, when faced with such a deluge, produce both excellent and unusual science and transformational outreach. The goal of this symposium, organised by the Zooniverse and sponsored by the Kavli foundation, is to take seriously the idea that citizen science will still be an important part of astronomical data analysis in a decade's time, and to lay the necessary foundations.
<p>The timing for such a meeting is excellent. Recent work by the Zooniverse team has got us
close to the point where the Zooniverse can operate as a true platform;
astronomers (and others) will be able to upload data, set up an interface
and launch it to a large crowd of volunteers without requiring any
technical expertise. This will enable not only an increase in the number
of large scale projects that we can run, but also open up a set of tools
that can be used by groups of experts or, alternatively, for purely
educational projects. The new infrastructure is also designed from the
start to support complex interactions between human and machine
classifications; essential in coping with the scale of the upcoming data
deluge.</p>
<p>The next generation of astronomical surveys - LSST, SKA, Euclid and more
- are being planned now. A meeting held now will
allow us to identify the problems most likely to require citizen science,
and to set the agenda for researchers in human computation and machine
learning. Instead of waiting for data to arrive and then scrambling to
find responses, we will be able to plan for the full complexity of future
surveys, maximising both the opportunities available to volunteers and
the scientific return on these large investments. The organisers hope that a
white paper will be produced after the conference, which could be widely
distributed to encourage debate about the state of the field. </p>
