Scientific paper

Virtual Observatories related to heliophysics have emerged in various regions of the World. Partly because of their sources of funding the emphasis they place on aspects of the problem differ and how well they can be integrated with other capabilities varies to a greater or lesser degree. We examine virtual observatories that are available in heliophysics and related disciplines and compare their capabilities and look at where their strengths lie. We also identify some of the steps that are needed to improve interoperability between the VO initiatives and propose that discussions under the auspices of CASSIS could help us globally to move towards this overall objective. CASSIS, the Coordination Action for the integration of Solar System Infrastructure and Science, is funded under Capacities specific programme of the European Commission' Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) and has the objective of exploring ways to improve interoperability for all aspects of Solar System Science. CASSIS grew out of the HELIO, Europlanet RI and SOTERIA projects and also includes other key partners, including NASA, ESA, and NOAA. We welcome participation by other interested organisations.
