Collaborative Page for SIA Interface

The Simple Image Access (SIA) interface defines a protocol for retrieving image data from a variety of multidimensional astronomical image/cube repositories through a uniform interface. The interface is meant to be reasonably simple to implement by service providers. A query defining a multi-parameter query is used to query for candidate images. The service returns a list of candidate datasets formatted as a VOTable. For each candidate image an access reference URL may be used to retrieve the image. Direct client-directed access to a remote image/cube dataset is also provided. Images may be returned in a variety of formats including FITS, other astronomical image formats, and various graphics formats. Referenced images are often computed on the fly, e.g., as cutouts from larger images.


SIAV2 Working Drafts and Recent Papers

Since late 2009 SIA V1.0 is now an IVOA Recommendation.

A major update to the SIA interface, SIA V2.0, is in the planning stages. A partial working draft is available at the link above, as well as related analysis papers as noted on this page.
