Rationale

The task of the DAL working group is to define and formulate VO standards for remote data access. Client data analysis software will use these services to access data via the VO framework; data providers will implement these services to publish data to the VO. The DAL working group will define the scope of the DAL standards, outline a process by which DAL standards are defined, and generate the initial version 1.0 of the DAL standard. This standard will provide guidance to data centers and survey projects when designing VO compliant interfaces. It will allow them to justify the allocation of resources for its implementation and maintenance. Once the work on Version 1.0 is accomplished the working group will coordinate future development of the standard.
