Description


This schema contains data re-published from the official Gaia mirrors (such as ivo://uni-heidelberg.de/gaia/tap) either to support combining its data with local tables (the various Xlite tables) or to make the data more accessible to VO clients (e.g., epoch fluxes). Other Gaia-related data is found in, among others, the gdr2dist, gdr3mock, gdr3spec, gedr3auto, gedr3dist, gedr3mock, and gedr3spur schemas.

Custom Service

This is service that does not comply with any IVOA standard but instead provides access to special capabilities specific to this resource.

VO Compliance: Level 2: This is a VO-compliant resource.
Available endpoints for this service interface:
  • URL-based interface: http://dc.g-vo.org/gaia/q2/dr2lcone/scs.xml?
    • Role: std
    • This interface supports the following arguments:
      RA
      Right Ascension (ICRS decimal)
      Value Type: real
      Unit: deg
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): pos.eq.ra
      DEC
      Declination (ICRS decimal)
      Value Type: real
      Unit: deg
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): pos.eq.dec
      SR
      Search radius
      Value Type: real
      Unit: deg
      parallax
      Absolute barycentric stellar parallax of the source at the reference epoch ref_epoch. If looking for a distance, consider joining with gdr2dist.main and using the distances from there.
      Value Type: real
      Unit: mas
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): pos.parallax
      phot_g_mean_mag
      Mean magnitude in the G band. This is computed from the G-band mean flux applying the magnitude zero-point in the Vega scale.
      Value Type: real
      Unit: mag
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): phot.mag;em.opt;stat.mean
      phot_bp_mean_mag
      Mean magnitude in the integrated BP band. This is computed from the BP-band mean flux applying the magnitude zero-point in the Vega scale. No error is provided for this quantity as the error distribution is only symmetric in flux space. For errors small compared to the flux (less than 10%, say), the magnitude error is well approximated by 1.09*flux/flux_err.
      Value Type: real
      Unit: mag
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): phot.mag;em.opt.B
      phot_rp_mean_mag
      Mean magnitude in the integrated RP band. This is computed from the RP-band mean flux applying the magnitude zero-point in the Vega scale. No error is provided for this quantity as the error distribution is only symmetric in flux space. For errors small compared to the flux (less than 10%, say), the magnitude error is well approximated by 1.09*flux/flux_err.
      Value Type: real
      Unit: mag
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): phot.mag;em.opt.R
      responseformat
      File format requested for output.
      Value Type: char
      Unified Content Descriptor (UCD): meta.code.mime
      maxrec
      Maximum number of records returned. Pass 0 to retrieve service parameters.
      Value Type: integer
      verb
      Exhaustiveness of column selection. VERB=1 only returns the most important columns, VERB=2 selects the columns deemed useful to the average user, VERB=3 returns a table with all available columns.
      Value Type: integer
