  Since 2003 the Planetary Virtual Observatory and Laboratory (PVOL) has been
storing and serving publicly through its web site a large database of amateur
observations of the Giant Planets (Hueso et al., 2010a). These images are used
for scientific research of the atmospheric dynamics and cloud structure on
these planets and constitute a powerful resource to address time changing
phenomena in their atmospheres. Advances over the last decade in observation
techniques, and a wider conscience by professional astronomers of the quality
of amateur observations, have resulted in the necessity to upgrade this
database. We here present major advances in the PVOL database that has evolved
into a full virtual planetary observatory encompassing also observations of
Mercury, Venus, Mars, the Moon and the Galilean satellites. Besides the new
objects, the images can be tagged and the database allows simple and complex
searches over the data. The new web service: PVOL2 is available online in
http://pvol2.ehu.eus/ , contains a fully functional search engine and
constitutes one of the many services included in VESPA (Virtual Europan Solar
and Planetary Access). Data from PVOL2 can be served from the VESPA portal
using the EPN-TAP protocol. PVOL2 also provides long-term storage to amateur
observations containing about 30,000 amateur observations starting in the year
2000. Current and past observations from the amateur community provide a global
view of the Solar System planets over the years with several possibilities for
scientific analysis and amateur astronomers involvement in planetary science.
