1. Introduction

This document presents the configuration procedure of the VESPA service installed during the first art of the tutorial. We propose here to set up the Registry configuration (Section 2), as well as a test TAP service (Section 3). 

In all this document, you will have to replace all text between <<...>> with the value that you have selected for your installation.

 

In order to prepare the installation, here is a table to be filled with the parameters of you installation:

The Paris Astronomical Data Centre aims at providing VO access to its databases resources, at participating to international standards developments, at implementing VO compliant simulation codes, data visualization and analysis softwares. Paris Astronomical Data Centre offers a central support to the various projects through central storage and web servers computing facilities.

About 30% of all French astronomers are working in its five laboratories and its institute. Situated on the Paris, Meudon and Nançay campuses, they are all associated with the CNRS and, in many cases, with the major scientific universities in the Paris area. The research done at the Paris observatory covers all the fields of contemporary astronomy and astrophysics.

2. DaCHS Registry Configuration

The Registry is the Information System of the Virtual Observatory (the yellow pages where all the services are registered). We describe a way to register your "authority ID" (description of the authority managing your resources) and the services provided by DaCHS. This operation shall be done only once. New services will be registered automatically.

First you need to create an identifier for your naming authority ID (ivo://my_datacenter)

The following lines have to be placed into the file /var/gavo/etc/defaultmeta.txt

publisher: <<my_datacenter>>
publisherID: <<my_datacenter-ivoid>>
contact.name: <<contact_name>> 
contact.address: <<contact_address>>
contact.email: <<contact_email>>
contact.telephone: <<contact_telephone>>
creator.name: <<creator_name>>
creator.logo: <<logo_url>>
authority.creationDate: <<authority_creationDate>>
authority.title: <<authority_title>>
authority.shortName: <<authority_shortname>>
authority.description: <<authority_description>>
authority.referenceURL: <<authority_url>>

Assessing your dataset

Depending on your dataset (just a series of files, number for data processing levels, presence of metadata, format of data, existing relational database...) various processing may be required. In order to prepare the sharing with EPN-TAP, here is a check list of what you need:

  • Public access to the data files you want to share: either on your server, or on a remote server with a publicly accessible URL (e.g., at NASA/PDS or ESA/PSA).
  • Assess
  • Metadata (relevant for EPNcore) for each file
  • Preview image for each file

Select a suitable data format if the current format is not
