The Large sky Area Multi-Object fibre Spectroscopic Telescope will
yield 10 million spectra of a wide variety of objects including
QSOs, galaxies and stars. The data archive of one-dimensional
spectra, which will be released gradually during the survey, is
expected to exceed 1 terabyte in size. This archive will enable
astronomers to explore the data interactively through a friendly
user interface. Users will be able to access information related
to the original observations as well as spectral parameters
computed by means of an automated data-reduction pipeline. Data
mining tools will enable detailed clustering, characterization and
classification analyses. The LAMOST data archive will be made
publicly available in the standard data format for Virtual
Observatories and in a form that will be fully compatible with
future Grid technologies.
