All MAST catalog holdings are available via a ConeSearch endpoint.
This service provides access to all MAST holdings with positional information that have been ingested into the Common Archive Observation Model (CAOM) and its summarized ObsCore format. It provides access to the same data as the CAOMTAP TAP service, linked as an auxiliary resource.

MAST SkyMapper Southern Survey Data Release 4 (SMSS DR4)
Short Name:
MAST SkyMapper

Publisher:
Space Telescope Science Institute Archive
Description:
MAST hosts a copy of the SkyMapper DR4 catalog.
SMSS DR4 contains optical photometry in the 6 SkyMapper filters (u,v,g,r,i,z) for ~700 million astrophysical sources over 26,000 sq.deg, ranging from the South Celestial Pole to Dec=+16 degrees for objects with data in all bands, and some sources as far North as +29 degrees. The photometry is drawn from over 15 billion measurements made from more than 400,000 images acquired by the 1.3m SkyMapper telescope between March 2014 and September 2021. The typical 10-sigma depths for each field range between 18.5 and 20.5 ABmag, depending on the filter, but certain sky regions include longer exposures that reach as deep as 22 ABmag.
Compared to previous SkyMapper data releases, DR4 includes significant enhancements in data processing, most notably a new photometric calibration anchored to synthetic photometry from Gaia low-resolution spectroscopy, which resolves reddening- and spatial-trends identified in previous releases, especially in the bluest filters, u and v.
A large number of other photometric and spectroscopic surveys have been cross-matched to the dr4.master table of objects, to facilitate various scientific investigations.
Near Infrared Camera and Multi Object Spectrograph

Description:
The HST Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) provides imaging capabilities in broad, medium, and narrow band filters, broad-band imaging polarimetry, coronographic imaging, and slitless grism spectroscopy, in the wavelength range 0.8-2.5 microns. NICMOS has three adjacent but not contiguous cameras, designed to operate independently, each with a dedicated array at a different magnification scale.
The Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) was installed in HST on Feb. 14, 1997, replacing the GHRS spectrograph. STIS provides spectra and images at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths, probing the Universe from our solar system out to cosmological distances.
All MAST catalog holdings are available via Cone Search endpoints.
