| Abstract: |
This chapter introduces a web-based application to discover, access, and analyze imaging data within the Virtual Observatory. The tool itself runs within a Firefox browser and is fully web-based. The NOAO NVO Portal provides a static “cached view” of many VO image archive holdings through: 1) footprints of their instrument wire-frames and 2) a time-line view of when those images were taken. The web application allows for live discovery and access via those same NVO compliant image access services, a shopping cart to stage data from different archives at one location, and direct access to VO image analysis services (e.g. WESIX and Aladin). The web application is available at: http://nvo.noao.edu. |
