Observatory/data centre partnerships and the VO-centric archive: The JCMT Science Archive experience

open access: yes, 2014
We present, as a case study, a description of the partnership between an observatory (JCMT) and a data centre (CADC) that led to the development of the JCMT Science Archive (JSA).

Topic Maps as a Virtual Observatory tool [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
One major component of the VO will be catalogs measuring gigabytes and terrabytes if not more. Some mechanism like XML will be used for structuring the information. However, such mechanisms are not good for information retrieval on their own.

Pulsating stars and the Virtual Observatory

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Virtual Observatory is one of the most used internet-based protocols in astronomy. It has become somewhat natural to find, manage, compare, visualize and download observations from very different archives of astronomical observations with no effort.

Virtual Observatories in Geosciences [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Science Informatics, 2008
Motivated by the Electronic Geophysical Year (eGY; www. egy.org), which is one of four international celebrations of the 50th anniversary of the International Geophysical Year which occurred in 1957–1958, the first ever conference devoted to Virtual Observatories in Geosciences (VOiG) was held in Denver, Colorado, USA between June 11 and 14, 2007.

Worldwide R&D of Virtual Observatory [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2007
AbstractVirtual Observatory (VO) is a data intensive online astronomical research and education environment, taking advantages of advanced information technologies to achieve seamless and uniform access to astronomical information. The concept of VO was introduced in the late 1990s to meet the challenges brought up with data avalanche in astronomy.

Cross Catalogue Matching with Virtual Observatory and Parameterization of Stars

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2012
Virtual Observatory facilities allow users to make a fast and correct cross-matching of objects from various surveys. They yield multi-color photometry data (color indices) on registered objects and make it possible to determine stellar parameters.
