12. 9/13/2004NVO Summer School, Aspen 200412 Catalog Access U wanna talk database? Structured Query Language or SQL for short (standard) Simple syntax SELECT FROM WHERE SELECT FROM WHERE For example: select ra, dec from galaxy where r<19 What else do we need? To specify area on sky Could be very complicated Standard interface to DBs XML Web Services for interop Tools to federate archives Dynamically for flexibility Astronomical Data Query Language

13. 9/13/2004NVO Summer School, Aspen 200413 Open SkyQuery SkyNode interface to archives Implements ADQL returns VOTable Basic node understands REGION Full node understands XMATCH SkyQuery portal Knows the SkyNodes from Registry Understands federated query http://openskyquery.net

15. 9/13/2004NVO Summer School, Aspen 200415 Project Ideas Average QSO spectrum? Composite spectrum of the 20 most distant SDSS quasars? Average spectrum as a function of redshift? Try a few redshift bins by hand this afternoon (pick ~10-20 objects for each bin) Write code to analyze many more redshift bins (flat z histogram inside bin?) Favorite object? Get image, spectrum and/or catalog data for your pet galaxy Don t remember the coords? Try name resolver at http://voservices.net/ned/http://voservices.net/ned/ Build a series of SDSS mosaic images Get images of astronomical objects given by RA and Dec (or by name?) Write code to make a movie zooming on any given galaxy (coords or name) Your idea here …
