AB: The STEREO mission provides an ideal case for the unification of space and solar physics datasets, since it involves aspects of both in itself, and, for full realization of its potential, its observations will need to be directly related to observations both of the Sun and of the Earth's environment. This talk will give an update on the VSPO efforts and will note how these relate to the STEREO goals. VSPO now has over 250 solar and space physics data products registered, with direct pointers to data sites, and in many cases the ability to deliver data from, e.g., the CDAWeb SOAP interface. It thus provides access to a large number of the datasets needed for global studies of the Sun-Earth system. The STEREO datasets will fit naturally into this context, perhaps linked via VSO and VHO. We are also working on tools for visual front ends and higher-order query services, and these will be discussed.
