A community driven, modular data-pipeline architecture to push EPRV into the 1 cm/s era

We have recently initiated a multi-institutional research program that will examine existing pipelines and catalog potential sources of variation in their resulting RV measurements. Through a series of EPRV community meetings we aim to establish community recommended, standardized formats for EPRV data products and to develop/distribute the tools necessary for direct comparisons of EPRV data between modern instruments. This program will lay the groundwork for a modular, open source, EPRV analysis toolbox that will be compatible with a wide variety of current and future instruments. Here we will provide a progress report on the program's steps towards this community-endorsed data standard, and highlight lessons learned from the early years of operation across the NEID, KPF, EXPRES, CARMENES, HPF, and MAROON-X RV spectrographs.
