Planetary Science Virtual Observatory architecture [PDF]

Astronomy and Computing, 2014
In the framework of the Europlanet-RI program, a prototype of Virtual Observatory dedicated to Planetary Science was defined. Most of the activity was dedicated to the elaboration of standards to retrieve and visualize data in this field, and to provide light procedures to teams who wish to contribute with on-line data services.

Running a distributed virtual observatory: U.S. Virtual Astronomical Observatory operations [PDF]

SPIE Proceedings, 2012
Operation of the US Virtual Astronomical Observatory shares some issues with modern physical observatories, e.g., intimidating data volumes and rapid technological change, and must also address unique concerns like the lack of direct control of the underlying and scattered data resources, and the distributed nature of the observatory itself.
