Venue
The venue for the workshop is the Large Conference Room of the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory at 5071 West Saanich Road (http://www.nrc-cnrc.gc.ca/eng/locations/directions/victoria.html).
The Observatory is about 15km north of the city and is poorly served by public transit. Hence, participants should either rent a car for transportation, or arrange to take a taxi with other participants. Typical one-way taxi fare is $30.
