[25.01] Knowledge Discovery Framework for the Virtual Observatory

B. Thomas, E. Shaya, Z. Huang, P. Teuben (UMD)

In this poster we describe a framework that allows a scientist-user to easily query for information across all Virtual Observatory (VO) repositories and pull it back for analysis. This framework hides the gory details of meta-data remediation and data formatting from the user, allowing them to get on with search, retrieval and analysis of VO data as if they were drawn from a single source. In this poster, we will present UML diagrams of the overall framework and, using an example use-case, will show how the scientist will interact with the framework using a science based terminology rather than a datacentric one.
