The GAPS (Global Architecture of Planetary Systems) project is a, mainly Italian, effort for the comprehensive characterization of the architectural properties of planetary systems as a function of the host stars characteristics by using radial velocities technique. Since the beginning (2012) the project exploited the HARPS-N high resolution optical spectrograph mounted at the 4-m class TNG telescope in La Palma (Canary Islands). More recently, with the upgrade of the TNG near-infrared spectrograph GIANO-B, obtained in the framework of the GIARPS project, it has become possible to perform simultaneous observations with these two instruments, providing thus, at the same time, data both in the optical and in the near-infrared range. The large amount of data obtained in about 5 years of observations provided various scientific outputs, and among them, time series of radial velocity (RV) profiles of the investigated stellar systems. This contribution shows the first steps undertaken to deploy the GAPS Time Series as an interoperable resource within the VO framework designed by the IVOA. This effort has thus a double goal. On one side theres the aim at making the time series data (from RV up to their originating spectra) available to the general astrophysical community in an interoperable way. On the other side, to provide use cases and a prototyping base to the ongoing time domain priority effort at the IVOA level. Time series dataset discovery, depicted through use cases and mapped against the ObsCore model will be shown, highlighting commonalities as well as missing metadata requirements. Future development steps and criticalities, related also to the joint discovery and access of datasets provided by both the spectrographs operated side by side, will be summarized.
