DynAstVO : the Europlanet orbital Near-Earth asteroid database

2016 
DynAstVO is a new orbital database dedicated to Near Earth Asteroid orbits, developed within the Europlanet 2020 RI framework.It provides parameters of asteroid orbits: orbital elements, observational information, minimum distance with Earth and planets, ephemeris and in particular, orbit uncertainty and associated covariance matrix.This database is updated daily on the basis of the Minor Planet Electronic Circulars.Orbit determination and improvement is computed as soon as new observations are available or an object is discovered.This database conforms to EPN-TAP environment (Erard et al. 2015, A&C 7) and is accessible through VO protocols or classical web access. Auxiliary data such as SPICE kernels for their ephemerides are provided.Finally, we present a comparison with other classical databases such as Astorb or MPCORB.Acknowledgements: This work is done in the framework of Europlanet 2020 RI which has received fundingfrom the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 654208.
