Background : The large scientific communities involved in the analysis and modelling of ground- and space-based datasets related to planetary environments in our Solar System have, over many decades, developed sophisticated models, algorithms and software for supporting this kind of research. With missions such as Cassini leaving a large legacy dataset for Saturn, Juno expected to do the same for Jupiter, and JUICE in the pre-launch phase of development, now is the time to raise awareness of these resources and in what form their originators have provided or plan to provide them to the wider community.

These workshops aims to bring together the following general groups:

• (i) Planetary modellers who wish to distribute their model outputs to the wider community, and who have used or would like to use specific types of platforms for that purpose.
• (ii) People who have been involved in the establishment of comprehensive online databases of planetary observations and / or model outputs, who wish to raise the community's awareness of these resources and relevant training materials.
• (iii) Planetary scientists who wish to inform themselves about resources from (i) and / or (ii), with a view to making use of such resources and tools for their own research.
The first workshop took place in September, 2018. The format format included ~25-minute presentations on relevant science, and / or available tools / resources for research. A brief summary and discussion closed the workshop, for outlining how the community, as a whole, can further promote present and future open- or secure-access databases and resources for supporting planetary research. A follow-up is planned for July, 2019. Some of the links below are for material presented and discussed at the first workshop ('Workshop I').
