Description:
This document describes an XML encoding standard for IVOA Resource
Metadata, referred to as VOResource. This schema is primarily intended
to support metadata exchange between interoperable registries and
resource discovery within them. However, any application that needs to
describe resources may use this schema. In this document, we define the
types and elements that make up the schema in close alignment to the
metadata terms defined in Resource Metadata for the Virtual Observatory
(Hanisch 2007), but also taking into account other metadata standards as
well as experiences from the operation of the VO Registry. We also
describe the general model for the schema and explain how it is extended
to add new metadata terms and describe more specific types of resources.
The Miriade project aims to provide a VO-compliant suite of services to compute positional and physical ephemerides of known solar system bodies as seen from any location on Earth as well as various location in space (HST, SPITZER, Gaia, etc.)
A service in the Common Execution Architecture. This service provides one or more science applications which are separately registered. See the ManagedApplications element of this document for a list of applications

This AstroGrid community is for users from the Univeristy of Edinburgh, as well as users from continental Europe who have requested AstroGrid access to UKIDSS data. It is also for those users who will be using UKIDSS heavily and would like to have their online data storage close to the actual database server.
