---++ Collaborative Page for SSA Interface 

SSA has been promoted to a Preliminary Recommendation, and is
currently undergoing a public request for comments.  See the
[[%WIKIHOMEURL%/bin/view/IVOA/SsaRFC][SSA RFC Page]] for the most
recent version of the specification, as well as information for how
to participate in the review process.

The Simple Spectral Access interface (SSA) defines a uniform
interface to simple 1D spectra, with extensions planned also
for 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.

   * Proposed Recommendation for the [[http://www.ivoa.net/Documents/PR/DAL/SSA-20070917.pdf][SSA query interface (September 17, V1.02)]]
   * Proposed Recommendation for the [[http://www.ivoa.net/Documents/PR/DM/SpectrumDM-20070913.pdf][Spectrum data model (September 13, V1.02)]]
   * Reference [[http://webtest.aoc.nrao.edu/ivoa-dal][SSAP Services]].  These provide a working example of the current query interface and query response for reference.
   * A spreadsheet summarizing the overall [[https://webtest.aoc.nrao.edu/ivoa-dal/ssap-keywords.xls][SSAP and Spectrum data models]].
   * A good overview of the DAL protocols, with a focus on spectral access, is given in [[http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/~dtody/ssa/tody-may07.pdf][this paper]].
