Description
SKA will be the first telescope to usher in a new era of how the astronomical community will interact with observational data. With data volumes approaching exabytes per year in the next decade, the SKA community is developing, through an international coordinated effort, a series of SKA Regional Centers (SRCs) in a global distributed SRC Network (SRCNet). At the Swedish SRCNet node we are working towards achieving the operational v0.2 milestone in mid 2026 which will support science commissioning efforts of SKA Low later this year. In this talk I will present the current state of development, and describe the services for accessing, processing, analyzing, and visualizing data remotely. The goal of SRCNet is to provide a seamless experience for users anywhere in the world, in order to make the most of this ambitious radio telescope for decades to come.
