ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Isa Barbarisi Beijing, May 2007 VOSpec Main Features Handle SSAP spectra Open local Spectra (Fits or VOTable) Create a SED of spectra coming from a wide range of different providers registered in the VO Registry ( and also coming from local data Create SSAP Wrapper with your own set of local spectra and immediately display it Graphic options like color modification, zoom, unzoom, change spectra visualization, change units etc.. Save results as Image/VOTable Math operations like Polynomial, BlackBody fitting, Gaussian, Nomalization, DeReddening, Red-shift, Luminosity Differences etc. Access to Theoretical Spectra through TSAP and Spectral Atomic Lines through SLAP Interoperability with other VO-aware tools through Plastic Technology Graphic Enrichment and Speed Improvement

ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Isa Barbarisi Beijing, May 2007 DAL Translator – Toward SSAPv1.0 SSAP servers don't comply last standard Complicates client design DAL Translator is a service which translate from sub-standard result queries to full SSAP-1.0

ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Isa Barbarisi Beijing, May 2007 DAL Translator - Implementation  The Implementation is based on XSLTs and XMLs for service mapping (Pedro Gomez):... ObsId char meta.id;obs * DataID.Title...  Configurable for translating a single SSAP service or a set of them through the extra “archive” HTTP parameter

ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Isa Barbarisi Beijing, May 2007 Plastic Technology and Applications PLASTIC is a protocol for communication between client-side astronomy applications. VOSpec implements the well known Interoperability Menu where operations like broadcast, send/receive VOTables and Spectra can be easily managed. The initial connection to the hub is made by reading the file.plastic. VOSpec allows registration to the Plastic Hub and it can interoperate with other VO-aware tools like Aladin, Astroscope, Topcat etc Noel Winstanley et al. Sending spectra from Astroscope to VOSpec through Plastic Thomas Boch et al. Sending spectra from Aladin to VOSpec through Plastic

ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Isa Barbarisi Beijing, May 2007 Plastic Technology and Applications Final users have to know as less as possible about Plastic and Applications Messaging Technologies Plastic should be transparent as much as possible (up to clients but recommended) From a tool to another there should be an automatic way to give the user the possibility to choose some tools by default. Enhance collaborations between VO tools/developers and sharing experience Simple Clients plastification Igor Chilingarian et al. Sending spectra from Euro3D VO Client to VOSpec through Plastic Mark Taylor Sending VOTable from Topcat to VOSpec through Plastic

ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Isa Barbarisi Beijing, May 2007 VOSpec - On working..  Math Package including Arithmetic Operations, Integrated Flux, Equivalent Width, Mirroring, Filtering and Best Fit Algorithm to be presented in London, IVOA Meeting September 2007 (by Andrea Laruelo)  Follow up Plastic v1.0 specification to improve VO tools interoperability  Compatibility with different formats, (e.g. CSV, SED..)  Save metadata as SED (Currently VOSpec supports VOTable/Image format)  Implementation new plastic messages (e.g. highlight objects, showSlits..)  MySpace
