ADASS provides a forum for scientists and programmers concerned with algorithms, software, and software systems employed in the acquisition, reduction, analysis, and dissemination of astronomical and planetary science data. An important element of the program is to foster communication between developers and users with a range of expertise in the production and use of software and systems. The program consists of invited talks, contributed oral and poster papers, tutorials, user group meetings, and special interest group meetings (collectively “Birds of a Feather” meetings). ADASS is known for its many fruitful community discussions during coffee breaks and after hours.


We invite you to the 35th annual conference on Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems. The conference will be held November 9-13, 2025 in Goerlitz, Germany, hosted by the German Center for Astrophysics DZA.
 
The meeting is an in-person event with a virtual component.
 
This annual conference, hosted by a different location each year, is a forum for astronomers, computer scientists, software engineers, faculty members and students working in areas related to algorithms, software and systems for the acquisition, reduction, analysis, and dissemination of astronomical data.
 
The ADASS XXXV program will include invited talks, contributed papers, tutorials, software demonstrations, and special interest ("Birds of a Feather" or BoF) meetings. These activities aim to stimulate further development of software and systems to meet the data science challenges of astronomy.
 
We would like to thank everyone who participated in proposing and voting for this year's themes. The POC and LOC selected the themes with guidance from the poll.  ADASS topics span the universe; key themes focus but do not limit abstract submissions. The key themes for ADASS XXXV are:
 
  • Science platforms in the big data era
  • Quality Assurance and Software Testing
  • Lessons learned
  • Automation of data pipeline and workflows
  • Collaborating with other software ecosystems and disciplines
  • Technical and social aspects of data lifecycle management
  • Theoretical astrophysics
 
The International Observatory Alliance (IVOA) November 2025 meeting will be held in Goerlitz from the 14th to the 16th of November, immediately after ADASS.
