Description

We will show a new web tool dedicated to multi-messenger astrophysics both for archival research
and real-time analysis. The web tool is based on the Virtual Observatory (VO) standards permitting
to manage sky localizations in HEALPix (Hierarchical Equal Area isoLatitude Pixelation) format
from various missions.
The application has been developed in accordance with the FAIR (Findability, Accessibility, Inter-
operability, and Reusability) principles, allowing the efficient exchange of essential information
between various partners in multi-messenger campaigns.
