The XPM Catalog Absolute proper motions of 280 million stars distributed all over the sky without gaps in the magnitude range 10m < V <20m on the basis of combined data from 2MASS and USNO-A2.0 catalogues. MAO NASU Plate Archive Digital archive of MAO NAS of Ukraine (GPA) comprises data of about 26 thousands of direct photographic plates, obtained with 14 instruments in 9 observational sites, and more than 2000 digital images of different resolution available via GPA search pages. Mykolaiv AO Plate Archive Digital archive of Mykolaiv Aastronomical Observatory (MykAO) includes astronomical data obtained during observations with photo plates and CCD frames. The digitization of the archive is near its completion. Digitized images are available via a web browser and Aladin. AO LNU Plate Archive Astronomical Observatory of Lviv National University (AO LNU) is the owner of valuable archive that stores approximately 8 000 of photographic plates from 1939, including nearly 6 000 direct images of the northern sky. The archive is partly digitized and images are available via the joint search pages of AO LNU and MAO NASU. IRA UTR-2 catalogue of RS The very-low frequency sky survey of discrete sources has been obtained in the Institute of Radio Astronomy of the Ukrainian National Academy of Sciences (Kharkov, Ukraine) with the UTR-2 radio telescope at a number of the lowest frequencies used in contemporary radio astronomy within the range from 10 to 25 MHz. Mykolaiv AO stellar catalogues 27 astrometric stellar catalogues of Mykolaiv Aastronomical Observatory (MykAO) in VOTable format are available for downloading AO KNU Historic Plate Archive AO KNU glass collection contains about 20 thousand photographic plates. Historical part of the archive was received during 1898-1946 and now is being digitized. home conception consortium resources vo links home ASTRO INFO NET GRID-based Virtual Observatory VIRGO.UA VO VIRGO.UA for cosmology and astrophysics is a segment of VO «Infrastructure»- a virtual organization, which deals with ensuring the provision of standards for Grid Services for virtual organizations, to ensure reliability functioning of the Ukrainian power grid, Grid training for users and administrators of the Grid sites, as well as the creation of technical conditions UNG for entry into the international grid community... WDC-Ukraine WDC-Ukraine is a part of World Data Center System of the International Council of Science (ICSU). Among the basic tasks of WDC-Ukraine there is collection, handling and storage of science data and giving access to it for usage both in science research and study process. That include contemporary tutoring technologies and resources of e-libraries and archives; remote access to own information resources for the wide circle of scientists from the universities and science institutions of Ukraine... Astronomical Net of Ukraine Добро пожаловать на портал astronomy.net.ua! Терабайты видео, книг и другой астрономической научной и научно-популярной информации доступны для Вас!

IVOA NEWSLETTER US VAO Data Discovery Portal Find datasets from thousands of astronomical collections known to the VO and over wide areas of the sky. This includes important collections from archives around the world. Feedback on your experience with the tool is appreciated -- please send your comments, suggestions, and questions to the VAO Help Desk . US VAO Cross-Comparison Tool Perform fast positional cross-matches between an input table of up to 1 million sources and common astronomical source catalogs, such as 2MASS, SDSS DR7 and USNO-B. Feedback on your experience with the tool is appreciated -- please send your comments, suggestions, and questions to the VAO Help Desk . VOPlot v1.8 Beta VOPlot v1.8Beta includes many enhancements and bug fixes. To name a few v1.8Beta supports multi-grid plots for 2D Scatter-Plot which allows the user to have multiple plots having grid size from 1x1 to 3x3 in a single window. Paginated view is added to see data in tabular format which allows user to navigate systematically. Provision to label Lat/Long lines is also added. Users can now plot a cumulative histogram for all histogram types. VOPlot 1.8Beta shows the metadata of a FITS file instantaneously while the actual loading happens in background. VOPlot v1.8Beta also provides better handling of "faulty data" while parsing an ASCII file. IVOA news MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE INTERNATIONAL VIRTUAL OBSERVATORY ALLIANCE (IVOA) AND THE OFFICE OF ASTRONOMY FOR DEVELOPMENT (OAD) Purpose of the collaboration Both the OAD and IVOA are motivated to use astronomical data for education, development and public outreach. The purpose of this collaboration is to bring together the complementary resources and expertise of IVOA and of the OAD in the context of developing a blended-learning Masters course in Astrophysics for universities based in Southern Africa. In this way, students can reinforce theoretical concepts through the use of real astronomical data, and also gain experience in data management and cleaning, which have much wider uses than astronomy.
