Abstract

We present the first publicly available service which allows astronomers to obtain customised radio interferometry images remotely, using the AstroGrid Virtual Observatory interface. This uses ParselTongue, a python-based scripting language developed by RadioNet, to extract customised images from calibrated MERLIN visibility data stored at Jodrell Bank Observatory. Similar services are being developed by other archives. We discuss this in the context of older, more limited, data access methods, and future developments.
