I am finally getting a chance to work on VO-related items, in preparation for the next meeting. This week, I am using the datamodel- derived tables to build classes for the database behind my SimDB/ SimDAP project. With luck, I will be getting in contact with Claudio to compare VOTable representations for SimDAP, and following up with Gerard on how to manage entries in a SimDB, both within the next week. Then I can spend time on the SimDAP draft with Claudio, and contribute to the SimDB note, if it has moved along.
My plan for Baltimore is to present a working service that is interoperable with both VisIVO, and our local analysis tools.
