Abstract

In this chapter we present an overview of NASA's Planetary Data System project with emphasis on the Small Bodies Node (SBN) and describe a separate relational database project, the Steward Observatory Asteroid Relational Database (SOARD). We summarize the datasets that are currently available through SBN and SOARD as well as those planned to be ingested in the future. Procedures for accessing data from the SBN and SOARD via Internet are included.
