GAVO Data Centre
Also known as German Astrophysical Virtual Observatory Data Centre
The GAVO data centre at Zentrum für Astronomie Heidelberg publishes astronomical data of all kinds – e.g., catalogues, images, spectra, time series, simulation results – in accordance with Virtual Observatory standards, making them findable and immediately usable through popular clients like TOPCAT, Aladin, or programatically through the astropy-affiliated package pyVO or the Java library STIL. We pay particular attention to providing thorough metadata to the VO Registry in order to facilitate discovery and reuse. While we have a clear focus on data produced with German contributions, we will usually publish data of other provenance, too. See https://docs.g-vo.org/DaCHS/data_checklist.htm…
