ISO was the world's first true orbiting infrared observatory. With four highly-sophisticated scientific instruments and a pointing accuracy at the arc-second level, ISO provided a facility of unprecedented sensitivity and capabilities for exploring the Universe at infrared wavelengths from 2.5 - 240 microns. During its highly-successful in-orbit operational phase from November 1995 to May 1998, ISO made some 30,000 individual scientific observations of all types of astronomical objects, from within our own Solar System out to the most distant galaxies. The resulting database provides a treasure trove of information for further astronomical research. All data is available to the community via the ISO Data Archive. An overview is given here of the ISO Data Archive functionality, content and usage.
The ISO Data Archive is available from the ISO Home Page, at http://www.iso.vilspa.esa.es/ida and from an increasing number of suppliers of astronomical information (Virtual Observatories).
