---++ Collaborative Page for SSA Interface 

The Simple Spectral Access interface (SSA) defines a uniform interface
to 1D spectra, time series, and SEDs. It shares many similarities
with the [[http://www.ivoa.net/Documents/latest/SIA.html][Simple Image Access]] (SIA) and Simple Cone Search (SCS) specifications.
