Description:
This is a course on the Virtual Observatory's main query language ADQL (short for Astronomical Data Query Language), which is a SQL dialect standardised so users do not have to learn new languages each time they want to use a new resource. We also introduce the basic aspects of the Table Access Protocol TAP, which transports ADQL queries, their results as well as the metadata necessary to write meaningful queries. The course comes with many exercises, most of which also have solutions. We hope it is suitable for both self-study and as lecture notes in teacher-led situations.

Description:
The global TAP schema collects information on tables and columns from known TAP servers. This facilitates locating queriable data by physics (via UCD) or keywords (via description). Note that this shouldn't really be necessary as all information present here should be exposed through Registry records. However, in reality data providers currently are much more liable to give column metadata in their tap_schema than in their Registry records. Hence, for the time being, we maintain this service by harvesting tap_schemas about monthly.
