IRSA provides API access to SPHEREx Spectral Images through version 2 of the VO Simple Image Access (SIA2) protocol. SIA2 allows users to query for a list of images that satisfy constraints based on position(s) on the sky, band, time, ID, and instrument. The list returned by the service includes data access URLs, which can be used to retrieve some or all of the images in the list using wget or curl. A brief summary of SIA2 for accessing SPHEREx data for IRSA is given below. Additional [documentation on IRSA’s SIA2 service](https://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/ibe/sia.html) can be found on the IRSA website:

The Exposure-Averaged Point Spread Functions (PSFs) are ~6 MB FITS cubes (one for each detector) with dimensions 101 × 101 × 121. Each of the 121 layers represents a "super-resolution" PSF estimate in a different region (defined by an 11x11 grid) of the detector. Each PSF is a two-dimensional array with size of 101 × 101 pixels. The PSFs are oversampled such that 10 PSF pixels cover the same spatial extent as one spectral image pixel (0.615 arcsec).
