The Data Provider Access Service provides integrated access to observations from a number of data archives and observatories. To date the DPAS supports access to more than 150 instruments from more than 40 observatories.
The DPAS is intended to isolate the user from the foibles of the providers and supports many access protocols, including http, ftp, Web Services, etc.
To use the DPAS select the time range of interest and one of more instruments and then press "Search". The results can be viewed as a Web-based table or viewed or downloaded as a VOTable file.
Questions: Is the DPAS working in the way that you expect? Does the list of instruments that it finds for the time interval you selected meet your expectations? If there are any problems, please let us know.

There is some instruments duplicated on the DPAS shown on the HFE but not on the stand alone service.
I've reported this on HFE (5 point) blog too.
Would be good if the DPAS could show thumbnails of the results as SDC does for Hinode. At least, it could provide a link to the SDC page for that result.
The link can be easily generated from the file name of Hinode/EIS. For example:
eis_l0_20070123_132644.fits.gz
would be linked with the thumbails on:
http://sdc.uio.no/search/show_details?FILE=eis_l0_20070123_132644
