The LSST project is unique in designing its data management and data access systems with the public and community users in mind. The enormous volume of data to be generated by LSST is staggering: 15 Terabytes of raw images per night with processed data, metadata, images, and catalogs growing at a rate of 15 Petabytes per year. LSST will also generate up to 100,000 astronomical alerts per night, for 10 years. The entire professional astronomical community is not large enough to follow up on all of these events and discoveries. The LSST EPO team is examining models for interaction with the survey data, particularly in how the community (amateurs, teachers, students, and general public) can participate in the discovery process. We will outline some of our models of community interaction for inquiry-based science using the LSST survey data, from social networking to public astronomy databases, and we invite discussion on these topics.
