AB: The Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF) at NASA GSFC has developed new and state-of-the-art, distributed programming (web services) interfaces to SPDF's space science mission services and data. This work is an essential step in integrating these powerful and popular SPDF software systems (and the NASA mission data they now serve) with external science data and model software systems under a NASA Virtual Observatory paradigm for enhancing the scientific return of space physics research. The distributed components of a space physics virtual observatory work together via standard interfaces and metadata agreements to form a system that appears as a single super-instrument providing geophysical measurements and models across time and space, enabling researchers to easily and seamlessly analyze data from many more sources than possible before. We are providing a critical set of these lower level components, leveraging our data format expertise and our existing and very popular science and orbit data web-based services, Coordinated Data Analysis Web [CDAWeb] and Satellite Situation Center Web [SSCweb], by adding web services for orbit location, data finding across FTP sites and in CDAWeb, data file format translation, and display. These services tie together existing data holdings, standardize and simplify their use, and enable much enhanced interoperability and data analysis. A Java3D application, TIPSOD (Tool for Interactive Plotting, Sonification and 3-D Orbit Display), developed in-house, makes use of these web services. CDAWeb, SSCWeb, CDF tools, and web services are a joint effort of the Sun-Earth Connections (SEC) Active Archive (SECAA) in the NASA GSFC Space Physics Data Facility (SPDF) and the National Space Science Data Center (NSSDC); see $<$http://spdf.gsfc.nasa.gov/$>$.
