Implementation of an XML Schema describing a Cone Search Service.
Based on "Simple Cone Search: a First Guide for Data Curators",
http://www.us-vo.org/metadata/conesearch/.
This schema defines a Capability type that is specific to Cone
Search. A service that has ConeSearch capability should be
registered as a TabularSkyService. The ConeSearch capability
element must include a ParamHTTP interface.
an abstract capability that fixes the standardID to the
IVOA ID for the ConeSearch standard.
See vr:Capability for documentation on inherited children.
The capabilities of a Cone Search implementation.
The largest search radius, in degrees, that will be
accepted by the service without returning an error
condition. Not providing this element or
specifying a value of 180 indicates that there
is no restriction.
Not providing a value is the prefered way to indicate
that there is no restriction.
The largest number of records that the service will
return. Not providing this value means that
there is no effective limit.
This does not refer to the total number of records in
the catalog but rather maximum number of records the
service is capable of returning. A limit that is
greater than the number of records available in the
archive is equivalent to their being no effective
limit. (See RM, Hanisch 2007.)
True if the service supports the VERB keyword;
false, otherwise.
A query that will result in at least on
matched record that can be used to test the
service.
A query to be sent to the service
the right ascension of the search cone's center in
decimal degrees.
the declination of the search cone's center in
decimal degrees.
the radius of the search cone in decimal degrees.
the verbosity level to use where 1 means the bare
minimum set of columns and 3 means the full set of
available columns.
the catalog to query.
When the service can access more than one catalog,
this input parameter, if available, is used to
indicate which service to access.
any extra (non-standard) parameters that must be
provided (apart from what is part of base URL given
by the accessURL element).
this value should be in the form of name=value
pairs delimited with ampersands (&).
