Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST)
The NASA’s Advanced Information Systems Technology (AIST) Program identifies, develops, and supports adoption of software and information systems, as well as novel computer science technologies expected to be needed by the Earth Science Division in the 5-10-year timeframe.
AIST’s previous thrusts have been New Observing Strategies (NOS) and Analytic Collaborative Frameworks (ACF). The current vision is to connect these two thrusts and integrate them into the larger concept of Earth System Digital Twins.

Aladin Sky Atlas
Aladin is an interactive sky atlas, developed at CDS (Strasbourg, France), allowing the user to visualize digitized images of any part of the sky, to superimpose entries from astronomical catalogs or personal user data files, and to interactively access related data and information from the Simbad, NED, and Vizier databases for all known objects in the field.
The set of sky images consists of the STScI Digital Sky Survey (DSS-I and DSS-II), as well as an ensemble of higher resolution images (ESO-R and SERC plates) digitized at the MAMA facility in Paris.

DataScope (HEASARC)
The great number of sites with information about astronomical objects makes it very difficult for astronomers to find out where there might be information of interest to their research. Use DataScope to find everything that's known about a given target or region of the sky. DataScope will query hundreds of VO-enabled data resources and organize the results for your viewing. New in version 4: Additional resources now being searched, which can (among other things) significantly increase the number of Vizier catalogs found. DataScope is an effort to use modern Web techology to enable astronomers (and the public) to query many sites easily.

Interoperable Systems for Archival Information Access (ISAIA)
In order to support the emerging Space Science Data Services information systems infrastructure, we propose to develop an interdisciplinary data location and integration service for space science. Building upon existing data services and communications protocols, this service will allow users to transparently query hundreds or thousands of WWW-based resources (catalogs, data, computational resources, bibliographic references, etc.) from a single interface. The service will collect responses from various resources and integrate them in a seamless fashion for display and manipulation by the user.
