What will we see?
VO: what, why and how?VO Services: examplesAstro-Wise data in VOVO data: how to use
next steps
Virtual Observatory
VO is one
standards education implementation
VO & Grid
Why VO?
multiband combined surveys
(almost) no cast problem
Simplicity of VO
parametrized request to the data XML for data exchange XML for data description wrapped data (images)
simple range request required parameters for request required parameters for result

Publishing in VO put data in a place available for an
external user provide a standard VO service

Description of resources: XML
VOTable the general container for the data XML based multiple data blocks flexibility: tables, images, archives

Astro-Wise problems: Data
RDBMS Objects XML
DBA, AW user AW user VO user
interfaces to VO
access to AW database
fast changes in the data
security
Astro-Wise problems: Access
uniform identifier
access by project, instrument
as less changes in AW concept as possible
VO layer on top of AW
more functionality
Registry
local publishing registry
relational database-like structure
python
compact: 50 records
AW class
