Symposium support for the meeting "Towards a Digital Society through Advanced Connectivity Infrastructure symposium" to be held in Santiago, Chile, May 3, 2011Chile is the host country for numerous astronomical facilities, some of which are fully operational while others are under development and/or being planned. Many of these observatories are funded, in whole or in part, by NSF. Recent technological increases in telescope and instrumental capabilities are enabling a rapid and very significant increase in the quality and quantity of digital astronomical data delivered by the observatories. In recognition of this and the impact that the resultant data flow will have on Chile's broadband network infrastructure, a symposium is being held in Santiago, Chile where national and international experts along with representatives of Chilean government agencies will help develop the ideas for an advanced connectivity infrastructure that will serve not only NSF's investments but Chilean society as well.

为将于2011年5月3日在智利圣地亚哥举行的“通过先进的连通性基础设施迈向数字社会”会议提供研讨会支持智利是众多天文设施的东道国，其中一些设施已全面投入使用，另一些正在开发和/或规划中。 这些观测站中的许多都是由NSF全部或部分资助的。最近望远镜和仪器能力方面的技术进步使天文台提供的数字天文学数据的质量和数量迅速而显著地提高。 认识到这一点以及由此产生的数据流将对智利的宽带网络基础设施产生的影响，正在智利圣地亚哥举行一次研讨会，国内和国际专家沿着智利政府机构的代表将帮助开发先进的连接基础设施的想法，这不仅将服务于NSF的投资，也将服务于智利社会。
