Automated access to NED's Web services using computer programs and scripts is
supported. Specific sample query URLs, which can be accessed via utilities such
as wget and curl or from programs written in Perl, Python or Java, can be found
in
NED for a New Era (Mazzarella et al. 2007). However, NED's ability to
support automated access involving large data volumes or high query rates is
limited. Please adhere to the NED Guidelines for Automated Queries.
