Design and Implementation of Astronomical Virtual Telescope Mechanism

With the development and progress of astronomical observation technology and equipment, astronomy research has entered the era of big data. It's a huge challenge how massive astronomical data is stored, processed, accessed, and shared. It becomes more and more difficult how to access and utilize all astronomical data because of astronomical data with unique format, variety of structures, wide variety of species and global astronomical research trend. To solve this series of problems, this paper proposes to design a distributed prototype system-astronomical virtual telescope for astronomical information management and retrieval to achieve the storage, processing, and access of astronomical data and provide support for the research and application of astronomy.
