Unicode in VOTable

Handling of non-ASCII text in VOTable is primitive and arguably broken. Following Markus's call to do something about this last Interop, there have been some discussion and proposals for exactly how to improve things. I will summarise where we are with this.

Implementation of HiPS3D extension in Aladin Lite within the SRCNet framework

I present the implementation of the HiPS3D extension in Aladin Lite, enabling efficient visualization and exploration of large cube datasets directly in the browser. This work, carried out within the SRCNet framework, demonstrates how HiPS3D technology can support interactive navigation through GBs-TBs of spectral cube data. A live demonstration will illustrate the integration, performance, and the potential of HiPS3D for next-generation astronomical data exploration tools.

HIPS and MOCs Progress Report

Progress on HiPS and MOCs has advanced rapidly in these recent months. We now have several independent implementations: Hipsgen, Aladin Desktop and Aladin Lite for CDS, Glue by Thomas Robitaille (US). Thomas R. proposed a significant evolution of the initial choices on FMOCs that were presented two years ago and the spectral HiPS3Ds that resulted from them. This evolution has been successfully tested. If you agree, I propose to report on that in the Application session. This could also be an opportunity to give a brief demonstration to complement what will have already been shown at ADASS a few days earlier (talk & poster).

Melissa DeLucchi HATS: Progress Report

We would like to deliver an update on HATS (Hierarchical Adaptive Tiling Scheme). The note was approved in August, 2025, and has seen increased adoption across archive communities. We will demonstrate some further integration with further existing VO architecture components, like registry.

HiPS network status: new HiPS datasets, new HiPS nodes

In this talk, I will present an overview of the most recent additions to the HiPS (Hierarchical Progressive Surveys) network. I will highlight newly generated HiPS datasets and introduce the new HiPS nodes that have joined the network. This will give an up-to-date picture of the HiPS network growth.
