---|---|---|
The recent Heliophysics Virtual Observatory (VxO) effort involves the development of separate observatories with a low overlap
in physical domain or area of scientific specialization and a high degree of overlap in metadata management needs. VxOware
is a content and metadata management system. While it is intended for use by a VxO specifically, it can also be used by any
entity that manages structured metadata. VxOware has many features of a content management system and extensively uses the
W3C recommendations for XML (Extensible Markup Language), XQuery (XML Query), and XSLT (Extensible Style Sheet Language Transformations).
VxOware has features such as system and user administration, search, user-editable content, version tracking, and a wiki.
Besides virtual observatories, the intended user-base of VxOware includes a group or an instrument team that has developed
a directory structure of data files and would like to make this data, and its associated metadata, available in the virtual
observatory network. One of the most powerful features of VxOware is the ability to link any type of object in the observatory
to other objects and the ability for every object to be tagged. |
