The ADS All-Sky Survey (ADSASS) is an ongoing effort aimed at turning the
NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS), widely known for its unrivaled value as a
literature resource for astronomers, into a data resource. The ADS is not a
data repository per se, but it implicitly contains valuable holdings of
astronomical data, in the form of images, tables and object references
contained within articles. The objective of the ADSASS effort is to extract
these data and make them discoverable and available through existing data
viewers. The resulting ADSASS data layer promises to greatly enhance workflows
and enable new research by tying astronomical literature and data assets into
one resource.
