“…Figure 7 shows an example of how Aladin can display the optical image corresponding to the region delimited by the coordinates found in a TAPAS VOTable. TAPAS VO services, once registered via VO Registry [2] web forms, will allow easy data retrieval from different astronomical client software (see also Fig. 8).…”

Astronomical observatories are today generating increasingly large volumes of data. For an efficient use of them, databases have been built following the standards proposed by the International Virtual Observatory Alliance (IVOA), providing a common protocol to query them and make them interoperable. The IRAM 30-m radio telescope, located in Sierra Nevada (Granada, Spain) is a millimeter wavelength telescope with a constantly renewed, extensive choice of instruments, and capable of covering the frequency range between 80 and 370 GHz. It is continuously producing a large amount of data thanks to the more than 200 scientific projects observed each year. The TAPAS archive at the IRAM 30-m telescope is aimed to provide public access to the headers describing the observations performed with the telescope, according to a defined data policy, making as well the technical data available to the IRAM staff members. A special emphasis has been made to IRAM is supported by INSU/CNRS (France), MPG (Germany), and IGN (Spain). 66Exp Astron (2012) 34:65-88 make it Virtual Observatory (VO) compliant, and to offer a VO compliant web interface allowing to make the information available to the scientific community. TAPAS is built using the Django Python framework on top of a relational MySQL database, and is fully integrated with the telescope control system. The TAPAS data model (DM) is based on the Radio Astronomical DAta Model for Single dish radio telescopes (RADAMS), to allow for easy integration into the VO infrastructure. A metadata modeling layer is used by the data-filler to allow an implementation free from assumptions about the control system and the underlying database. TAPAS and its public web interface (http://tapas.iram.es) provides a scalable system that can evolve with new instruments and observing modes. A meta description of the DM has been introduced in TAPAS in order to both avoid undesired coupling between the code and the DM and to provide a better management of the archive. A subset of the header data stored in TAPAS will be made available at the CDS.

“…The main VESPA web interface (http://vespa.obspm.fr.) and the data mining utilities such as TOPCAT discover EPN‐TAP‐compliant services by querying the VO registries. The list of registries is maintained by the IVOA RofR, consequently registering a publishing registry with RofR makes its published services visible to the VO community (Benson et al, ). Using GAVO DaCHS to support EPN‐TAP protocol bridges the gap by allowing discovery of geospatial data using astronomical software.…”

Virtual Observatory tools are specifically designed for astronomical data, but they can be adapted to work with geospatial data by providing existing Geographical Information System tools with Simple Application Messaging Protocol interface. Open source QGIS package was chosen as a platform for this. The Simple Application Messaging Protocol interface was made with Python plug‐ins. Geospatial data were exposed to Virtual European Solar and Planetary Access via a dedicated German Astronomical Virtual Observatory Data Center Helper Suite server and several tables exposing existing Open Geospatial Consortium—compliant planetary services were published to Virtual European Solar and Planetary Access providing a variety of geospatial data types: vector data and spectral cube rasters, as well as Open Geospatial Consortium Web Map Service of planetary maps.

“…It is based on the work of the Astrogrid project 7 that was the UK's Virtual Observatory development project from 2001 to 2010 [9]. They developed a registry whose interface is based on the International Virtual Observatory Alliance standard [10]. Thus any user or service can easily know how to write queries to find the services.…”

VAMDC bridged the gap between atomic and molecular (A&M) producers and users through providing an interoperable e-infrastructure connecting A&M databases, as well as tools to extract and manipulate those data. The current paper highlights the usage of the VAMDC Portal, recalls how data citation is implemented within VAMDC and provides insights about usage of VAMDC that will increase the impact factor of A&M producers and will offer a more reliable citation of A&M datasets included in application fields.
