So, let's not be restricted by what we think the limitations of the database interface may be!

The organisation of this page is as follows. Each science project in the SL chapter of the Science Book will need a technical feasibility study. Since ALL LSST science projects will begin with a database query, it makes sense to focus the feasibility study on what we require from the databases. This can start qualitative and idealised, and then become more focused as we work with the Data Management team. While the science projects are still under discussion, let's keep everything on this (very long!) page, and we'll reorganise later.
