Scientific paper

The Virtual Observatory (VO) provides client applications with a uniform interface to access distributed, multi-wavelength astronomical data. In this paper we review the VO data access interfaces, and describe the capabilities provided for accessing spectroscopic data, including simple one-dimensional spectra, spectral aggregates and SEDs, spectral data cubes, and observed and theoretical spectral line lists. These capabilities include comprehensive metadata for uniformly describing and characterising datasets, an essential capability for enabling automated data discovery and data selection, and capabilities to dynamically subset and filter data at access time, or actively mediate external data to a common data model, an essential capability for automated analysis of data from many sources.
