TL;DR: The first data release (SSDR1) contains flux calibrated spectra from the first year (April 2012-2013), and a total of 221 confirmed supernovae were classified, and they released calibrated optical spectra and classifications publicly within 24 h of the data being taken as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of 76 grizy-band Type IIP SNe light curves from Pan-STARRS1, obtained over a constant survey program of 4 years and classified using both spectroscopy and machine learning-based photometric techniques, are assembled and applied a new Bayesian model for the full multi-band evolution of each light curve in the sample.
