Abstract
4 pages, 1 figure.-- Editors: Bohlender, David A.; Durand, Daniel; Dowler, Patrick.-- This volume contains papers that were presented to the 18th annual conference on Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems (ADASS XVIII), which was held on 2--5 November in Québec City, QC, Canada.The scientific goals of the AMIGA project are based on the analysis of a significant amount of spectroscopic 3D data. In order to perform this work we present an initiative to develop a new VO compliant package, including present core applications and tasks offered by the Groningen Image Processing System (GIPSY), and new ones based on use cases elaborated in collaboration with advanced users. One of the main goals is to provide local interoperability between GIPSY (visualization and data analysis) and other VO software. The connectivity with the Virtual Observatory environment will provide general access to 3D data VO archives and services, maximizing the potential for scientific discovery.This work will be partially supported by the Spanish
