The AAT/PPI (Archive Access Tool/Pipeline Processing Interface) is designed to be a replacement for the NRAO's current archive tool (https://archive.nrao.edu) that gives astronomers the ability to utilize the NRAO's processing clusters to manipulate observation data using CASA: this . This preliminary release provides the capability to run EVLA and ALMA observations through their respective calibration pipelines, ; additional capabilities will be forthcoming.

...

  • Responsive interface that works on mobile devices.
  • Natural language (text based) searches of the observation's title, abstract, source names, authors, and more, ; e.g., search on 'nova'.
  • Search results displayed as an Observations View (similar to the legacy archive) or a Projects View, which aggregates observations by project and also displays the title, abstract and other assorted details missing from the Observations View.
  • Display a scans report for a given execution block, including the scan intents and subscans.
  • The 'my data' feature: login, press a button, and see a list of your observations.
  • If you link your ALMA and NRAO accounts, you can use either to access your observations.
  • For ALMA and VLA you can download your SDM as a measurement set and filter by scan intent.
  • For ALMA and VLA you can download a calibrated measurement set, which re-runs the calibration pipeline on your SDM.
  • For VLA you can download a calibrated measurement set restored from a previously run calibration pipeline.

...

  • The search interface for this release of the AAT/PPI is built on a completely new database of metadata, redesigned around the needs of VLASS and SRDP (ingestion of calibration products, observations with thousands of sub-scans and so on): we . We have ingested metadata from ALMA and the Jansky VLA into it, but it lacks metadata for the GBT, legacy VLA, and VLBA. Work is underway to address these issues, but until it is complete users are advised to use the legacy archive instead.
