Since early in 1998, NASA's Advanced Composition Explorer (ACE) spacecraft has provided continuous measurements of solar wind, interplanetary magnetic field, and energetic particle activity from L1, located approximately 0.01 AU sunward of Earth. The spacecraft has enough fuel to stay in orbit about L1 until ~2024. The ACE Science Center (ASC) provides access to ACE data, and performs level 1 and browse data processing for the science instruments. Thanks to a NASA Data Services Upgrade grant, we have recently retooled our legacy web interface to ACE data, enhancing data subsetting capabilities and improving online plotting options. We have also integrated a new application programming interface (API) and we are working to ensure that it will be compatible with emerging Virtual Observatory (VO) data services standards. The new API makes extensive use of metadata created using the Space Physics Archive Search and Extract (SPASE) data model. We describe these recent improvements to the ACE Science Center data services, and our plans for integrating these services into the VO system.
