How to consume TAP and SIAP for lightcurve survey ?

Hi all

my original question was about light curves not radio data cubes ;-)
So is there a suggested solution here ?

How the suggested SIAP2 joins the photometry data model ? I will repeat - 
we need some quick solution for the students working on our survey and 
there should be something able to display the light curve and some 
processing on it - Period analysis, folding with phase ....
Is Iris going to do this ? So far I have seen just web service of VOA 
linked to several surveys directly.

BTW concerning TAP -

the question remains - not only HOW to consume but WHAT to consume in TAP

I cannot find anything that would realize the idea of 
querying all servers using obscore to make discovery as described in the 
motivation of introducing the ObsTAP.

nice examples in Appendix A of

http://www.ivoa.net/Documents/ObsCore/20111028/REC-ObsCore-v1.0-20111028.pdf

do not work - the stated service 
"http://www.cadc.hia.nrc.gc.ca/caom/sync
does not exist.

In no TAP service available in Astrogrid registry over Topcat is the 
obscore table ....

Where are all TAP services ? In TOPCAT there is access only to Astrogrid 
registry (EURO-VO registry query crashes) and in Astrogrid there are only 
few TAP resources - some catalogues and planetary tables + heteregeneous 
set of GAVO tables.

I was expecting CADC is advanced in TAP - but no entry seems to be for 
direct access to CADC.

I would expect obseration logs of missions and surveys to be put in 
obscore and allowed for the discovery process ...

What  am I doing wrong ?
