Abstract: Since July 1993 all observations collected by the 1.82m telescope at Cima Ekar (Asiago) are systematically archived on DAT cartridges and a listing of collected data, including all parameters of the observations, is maintained in a relational DBMS. In order to promote the scientific reuse of observations stored in this archive, we have developed a WWW interface based on the WDB software, that enable users to perform complex searches in the observation log. In this paper we give an overview of the archive, briefly describe the WWW--based search interface as well as planned future enhancements to the archiving system.
