Research Supporting
Telescope online applicationOnline observation environmentCollaborative observationObservation Data management
*


Telescope Online Application
Traditional wayEmail/TelephoneIneffective, long time, Online way in AVLABSubmitting applicationEvaluationAllocation/ScheduleConfirmationAnnouncementThe application for 2.16m and 1.56m telescopes observation time in 2008 is being carried out
*


Online observation environment
Not need to care the boring nonessentials detailsEach telescope operated in an universal interfaceSeveral users can simultaneously share the same telescopeController (one)Collaborator (several)Viewer (many)Controller can determine the range of CollaboratorController can grant control priority to other collaborator temporarily
*


Collaborative observation
Several telescopes is controlled simultaneously by one user to observe the same objectWith the support of online observation environment of AVLAB, in the July of this year, we successfully carried out a collaborative observationBlazer, An Active Galactic Nuclei , AGN
*


Collaborative observation (cont.)
To research into the optical variability of Blazer, it need to two telescopes to observe in different wave band2.16m telescopeB band1.56m telescopeR band
*


Collaborative observation (cont.)
*


Observation Data management
When one user carry out an online observation, the data (observation result) will be automatically backup in AVLAB.In the secrecy period (generally three year), the owner can download the data anytime and anywhere, while other people cannot.When the secrecy period expired, the data will be released automatically to public and anyone can share it.
*


Education Supporting
AVLAB support astronomical online educationEnable the student use telescope in class, which was unbelievable beforetimeBeijing Normal UniversityPopular ScienceSunspotstar shower
*


Planning
More telescope will be available in AVLABMany collaborative observation among more than two telescopes will be performed to meet the demands of several important projectsA multimedia real-time communication tool will be deployed in AVLAB and users can communicate with each other in words, audio, video and electronic interactive white boardSeveral key technologies for remote accessing radio telescope will be started
