Interoperability is a core part of astrophysical research
since decades; from agreed data exchange formats,
even before the existence of network exchange, to
higher levels of interoperation anticipating the current
Open and FAIR paradigms. Efforts and solutions proposed by the IVOA community, and taken up by world class data centers, closely follow this attitude and provide a flexible...
The heterogeneity of observational papers makes every attempt to write a uniform catalog almost impossible. Our aim is to build a new catalog selecting the best targets whose datasets were included in one or more of the four major exoplanets online databases: NASA Exoplanet Archive [1,A], Exoplanet Orbit Database [2,B], Exoplanet Encyclopaedia [3,C] and Open Exoplanet Catalogue [4,D].

As we are approaching the era of big data in astronomy, tools to address the challenges of database cross-correlation and automated advanced image product generation are needed. Here we present two such tools - KAFE and TOAST. KAFE, the Key-analysis Automated FITS-images Explorer, is a web-based FITS image post-processing analysis interface designed to be applicable in the radio to sub-mm...
