The SAXAO database contains the list of the all accepted AO1/AO2/AO3/A04/AO5 SAX CORE and GO program proposals, approved for the first year of operations. The database also includes targets scheduled for the Science Verification Phase (SVP) (from launch, 30 April 1996, till August 1996). The CORE program includes proposals led by Principal Investigator belonging to Italian or Dutch institutions, to the Space Science Department of ESA or to the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestial Physics in Garching. Approximately 80 percent of the first year observing time is allocated to the CORE program. The remaining 20 percent of time for the first year operations is reserved for the GO program. For the AO2 60 percent is allocated to the CORE program and 40 percent to the GO. For the AO3 and AO4 50 percent is allocated to the CORE program and 50 percent to the GO.

The SAXNFILOG database contains the SAX Narrow Field Instruments (NFI) approved pointings, but it also served as an observations log. It includes data taken during AO1, AO2, AO3, A04 and AO5 cycles and the Science Verification Phase (SVP). This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
The SAXWFCLOG database contains the SAX WFCs observations log for the AO cycles and the Science Verification Phase (SVP). The two WFCs are located at 90 degrees from the NFI and set 180 degrees apart. The field of view is 40 deg X 40 deg and the coordinates given in this databases are the pointing positions. The database is updated regularly to include the most recent timeline, and updates are provided by the SAX-Science Data Center in Rome. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
