Abstract

SkyBoT is a VO service which allows to seek and identify solar system objects (planet, satellites, asteroids, comets) in any field of view at a given epoch (cone-search method). It provides also a solar system object name resolver which convert the name or the designation of solar system objects into their celestial coordinates at a given epoch (resolver method). The SkyBoT service are available through a Web interface and a Web service (SOAP+WSDL+HTTP) which implements the IVOA Simple Cone-Search protocol.
