ESO is committed to producing and maintaining a data stream from the VLT Observatory that forms a data heritage for international astronomy. This goal is being realised by an end-to-end operational approach that maintains data integrity, produces appropriate metadata, maintains and executes calibration plans and produces quality controlled data products. ESO has also designed and produced advanced data products from surveys that are available from the ESO/ST-ECF Science Archive Facility (SAF) and which feed archival science programs and future applications for VLT time. ESO also wishes to ensure that the full scientific potential of the VLT is realised by granting large amounts of telescope resources to large programmes chosen on scientific merit by the Observing Programme Committee (OPC). To ensure that the scientific products from these programmes also form an effective part of the VLT data heritage and the emerging international virtual observatory, ESO is defining requirements and procedures for large programmes that will ensure their scientific output can be published through the SAF. This goal is directly supported by the recommendations of the recent ESO workshop on Large Programmes and Surveys, endorsed by the Scientific Technical Committee (STC) at its April 2004 meeting.
