Serbian virtual observatory

Abstract

The work on SerVO - Serbian virtual observatory (http://servo.aob.rs/ ~darko) started in 2008, with aims 1) To establish SerVO and join the EuroVO - European Virtual Observatory and IVOA - Inetrnational Virtual Observatory Alliance; 2) To create SerVO data Center for digitalization and archiving in VO format photo-plates from Belgrade Astronomical Observatory and other astronomical results obtained by the staff; 3) To develop the tools for visualization of data; 3) To develop together with Observatoire de Paris, STARKB - database containing as the first step Stark widths and shifts of spectral lines, determined within the semiclassical perturbation approach by two of us (MSD-SSB) and to create a mirror site in Belgrade; 4) To make a mirror site for DSED (Darthmouth Stellar Evolution Database) in which development took part one of us (DJ). An additional aim is the creation of VAMDC (Virtual Atomic and Molecular Data Center) AOB (Astronomical Observatory of Belgrade) Node, and a recent objective is the collaboration with the Large Synoptic Telescope (LSST) project. In this contribution SerVO project is reviewed within the context of e-science in Astronomy - Astroinformatics. Copyright © 2012 ACM.
