The first three tools can be accessed without logging in to Data Central. Alternatively, you can log in with your AAO/Lens account, which will allow you track your service history and retrieve previous queries and cutouts, and edit survey team pages (please contact your survey team PI to gain access).
Additionally, Data Central provides a TAP (Table Access Protocol) service, for use with TOPCAT, Aladin and similar VO-compliant tools. To access the TAP service in e.g. TOPCAT, select the TAP option from the VO menu and under Selected TAP service enter https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/QpYbCBNZwLiz6lR3C1rTEk?domain=datacentral.aao.gov.au <https://protect-au.mimecast.com/s/QpYbCBNZwLiz6lR3C1rTEk?domain=datacentral.aao.gov.au> and click Use Service. Other IVOA services will be added in the coming weeks.
