Oasis On-line Archive
Science Information
Services
Oasis provides access to data from many sources. Client GIS functionality allows fusion multiple datasets simultaneously. A general mechanism allows easy extension with other third-party data.
 
Before you start...
JAVA Configuration

CautionPlease install the JAVA plugin first!

Oasis can run as an applet if your browser has JavaScript active, the JAVA plug-in installed, and you grant Oasis permission to interact with your local file system. Pop-ups must also be enabled in your browser since Oasis itself runs inside a pop-up window.
 
Running Oasis...
Run Oasis Oasis can also be downladed as an executable JAR file here (Shift-right-click / Save Link As...) though many of the associated data services will not be available in this mode.
 
User Documentation...
Oasis is a general astronomical archive access and data integration tool. For more information, see:
