Big Maser Data: Methanol Maser Database

Methanol Maser Database [http://maserdb.net] is the first specialized web-interface database collecting the most up to date data on the sources of methanol molecule maser emission. Methanol masers provide us with unique information on the properties of the interstellar medium and found both in galactic and extragalactic objects. The methanol maser database is equipped with a search tool allowing an unified access to the cataloged maser data, as well as to the external data, including images and catalogs of well-known sky surveys. An ample functionality of statistical analysis is included to the web interface. An overview of the technical implementation of the database and the first results of statistical data analysis will be presented.
