Abstract

We introduce and describe main results of the AMIGA project. AMIGA involves a panchromatic characterization for many of the most isolated galaxies in the local universe. Many of these galaxies have avoided major interaction events for all, or most, of their lives. Our studies show these galaxies to be the most IR/radio/optically ˵quiet″ sample that is known. AMIGA data are publicly released under a VO interface at http://amiga.iaa.es/ and are also accessible by standard VO tools, as, e.g. TOPCAT. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
