Pulsar VO Project Tracker

The Pulsar Virtual Observatory (VO) project is an endeavour to make publicly available the data from two large pulsar surveys done with the Parkes radio telescope: the 70-cm Southern Pulsar Survey, and the Parkes Multibeam Pulsar Survey.

Summary

There are two aspects to this project, which are detailed on the following wiki pages:

• ConversionSoftware -- software to convert data into FITS format, along with other software to examine the resulting files.
• WebQuery -- putting the data online and making it accessible through browser-based queries and VO services.

Progress

June 21: The page ToDo has a table showing what tasks need to be done, and who is responsible. This page can be edited if needs be.

I've also started a document that details various aspects of the implementation of the archive and the VO queries: see source:trunk/docs/VOimplementation.pdf​
