Born in 1999 from the convergence between the LEDA and HYPERCAT, the extragalactic database HyperLeda is the result of a collaboration between Observatoire de Lyon, Observatoire de Paris, Sternberg Astronomical Institute of the Moscow Stale University and the Department of Astronomy of Sofia University. The project has been supported by the Programme National Galaxies (PNG). Available through 8 mirror interfaces automatically maintained, HyperLeda is distributed worldwide and now integrated in the Virtual Observatory.
