  2. Describing catalogues • Registry requirements becoming well-developed: • IVOA & constituent forums • AstroGrid etc. working groups • Derriere, Hanisch documents etc. etc. • How do we extract the information from • tables • source catalogues • archive catalogues etc? • UCDs needed for • Data-providers' header information • Coverage and other info extracted from catalogues • Evaluation/ defaults for missing info e.g. epoch

  3. What UCDs? e.g. frequency... 1kHz chans 50 MHz total obs bandwidth 1.0 2.0 4.0 8.0 16.0 32.0 MHz • Potential observations in these instrumental bands • FREQ_RADIO? or FREQ (value radio)? • Possible bins allocated by VO • FREQ_COVERAGE (list or matrix must be evaluated) • Resolution - from finest possible to greatest continuous bandwidth for a single observation • FREQ_RESOLUTION_FINE / _COARSE? • or FREQ_RESOLUTION (value broadest, narrowest) • translate ambiguities e.g. 'max/min', Ha (what velocity) 1 2 3 4 5

  4. What UCDs? e.g. frequency... 1kHz chans 50 MHz total obs bandwidth 1.0 2.0 4.0 8.0 16.0 32.0 MHz • Data quality - bandpass function exists, errors etc. • FREQ_QUALITY_WELLDEFINED (by provider) • or FREQ_QUALITY_DEFAULT (VO assigned) • Other header information not for Registry but needed to answer query e.g. • all observations at 1.4 GHz - propagate header UCD FREQ_1.4G to all columns? • Bandpass look-up table

  5. Developing Registry UCDs • Sebastien Derriere's paper • Section 3 - Data Models - top levels inform Registry • Section 4 - UCDs must be according to controlled vocabulary and etymology • FREQ_COVERAGE or COVERAGE_FREQ? • Evolve with respect to demand • Data providers • CDS contains >2500 optical catalogues, 2 eUV • Registry finer-grained in optical regime • Science use cases • AVO Demo (e.g. select catalogues with PHOTOMETRY) • Brown Dwarf case etc. etc.
