Astrobrowse is a web user agent - it automates the tasks that a user would do. In particular, it sends a query to as many resources as the user selects, using the object information that the user provides. The user only fills out one form and Astrobrowse takes care of interacting with all the remote databases. Astrobrowse takes as input either the name of an astronomical object, or celestial coordinates.
Users can also specify a radius around the object or position to search around.
Astrobrowse returns web pages just as if the user had gone directly to the remote site and queried using their form. The search radius is optional. Select the resources you want to query.
