title = "The ScopeSim Ecosystem",
abstract = "ScopeSim is a general-purpose observation data simulation ecosystem for astronomical instruments. It allows users to simulate observations with multiple instruments for the same (often custom built) target description using a common software platform, thus enabling “apples-to-apples” comparisons of the outputs. The simulation engine has been described in a previous proceedings paper,1 however behind the scenes a vast infrastructure has been built to support the ScopeSim engine. The supporting elements are in some cases major projects in their own right, with multiple additional use cases and user groups. For example, the instrument reference database (IRDB) provides a public and open-source platform for instrument consortia to distribute a coherent picture of the optical properties and characteristics of their instrument(s).",
