- Abstract
VALD is a collection of atomic transition parameters and supporting extraction software. VALD services are available via Email (VALD-EMS) and the Web interface. Different kinds of requests are useful for several needs like abundance analysis, radial velocity measurements, or line identification. Since 1994, the early days of VALD, the database has been constantly improved and the release of VALD-3 - incorporating, e.g., molecular data and new line lists - is in preparation. With meanwhile more than 5 000 000 requests VALD developed to a much appreciated tool.
