Theoretical Astrophysical Observatory

The Theoretical Astrophysical Observatory (TAO) will house queryable data from multiple popular cosmological simulations (currently the Millennium Simulation and Bolshoi Simulation) and galaxy formation models (currently Croton et al. 2006 and Somerville et al. 2008) in a database that is optimised for rapid access. Query results can be funnelled through additional modules, such as Spectral Energy Distribution and Mock Image generation, and sent to a local supercomputer for further processing and manipulation. All this will be accessible via the cloud through a browser for access anywhere in the world by the astronomical community.
