Simple Cone SearchThis Simple Cone Search (SCS) defines a simple query protocol for retrieving records from a catalog of astronomical sources. The query describes sky position and an angular distance, defining a cone on the sky. The response returns a list of astronomical sources from the catalog whose positions lie within the cone, formatted as a VOTable.

Errata for this specification can be found here.Current ActivitiesA revision of the Simple Cone Search is in progress. | ||||||||
