Hi,

I don't found nothing like this, because:

Normally all telescopes have some kind of archive system, could be from a workstation with a big hard drive to a archive system on an cluster with a db and tied to a telescope control system. But the solutions made are normally close related to a telescope and the instruments installed.

On the other side, the FITS images contain metadata (header) about the image and telemetry information from the telescope and the instrument used for this image and there is no standarization, because they are plain text fields and values. You can even find images from the same telescope with different keywords for the same attribute because the development of the instruments were done by different groups.

So there're not standard solutions out there (as far as I know).

The difference with other systems, is that this is not tied to any telescope or set of instruments, so that it can handle images from different instruments as also different telescopes in one single archive.
