- Description:
- This all sky mosaic was created by Axel Mellinger and is used in <i>SkyView</i> with his permission. A fuller description is available at the <a href="https://www.milkywaysky.com/">survey website</a>. <p> Between October 2007 and August 2009 a digital all-sky mosaic was assembled from more than 3000 individual CCD frames. Using an SBIG STL-11000 camera, 70 fields (each covering 40x27 degrees) were imaged from dark-sky locations in South Africa, Texas and Michigan. In order to increase the dynamic range beyond the 16 bits of the camera's analog-to-digital converter (of which approximately 12 bits provide data above the noise leve) three different exposure times (240s, 15s and 0.5 s) were used. Five frames were taken for each exposure time and filter setting. The frames were photometrically calibrated using standard catalog stars and sky background data from the Pioneer 10 and 11 space probes. the panorama has an image scale of 36"/pixel and a limiting magnitude of approximately 14. The survey has an 18 bit dynamic range. <p> The processing of these data used a custom data pipeline built using IRAF, Source Extractor and SWarp. <p> The data used here were converted to three independent RGB color planes of 8 bits each and provided to SkyView as a single 36000x18000x3 Cartesian projection cube. To allow users to efficiently sample data in a region of the sky, this cube was broken up into 2100x2100 pixel regions with a 50 pixel overlap between adjacent images. Tiles at the poles were 2100x2050. <p> In <i>SkyView</i> each color plane comprises a survey. The individual planes may be sampled as surveys independently as Mellinger-R, Mellinger-G and Mellinger-B. The color mosaics can be regenerated by creating an RGB image of all three surveys. Since <i>SkyView</i> may stretch the intensity values within each color, linear scaling and a minimum of 0 and maximum of 255 should be specified to keep the original intensity scalings. <p> The full spatial resolution data is used for images of less than 30 degrees on a side. If a user requests a larger region, data are sampled from a lower resolution 3600x1800x3 data cube. Please contact the survey author if you need to use the higher resolution data for larger regions. The Mellinger survey is only available in <i>SkyView</i> through the website. SkyView-in-a-Jar cannot access the underlying data. Provenance: Axel Mellinger. This is a service of NASA HEASARC.

- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The 4850MHz data is a combination of data from three different surveys: Parkes-MIT-NRAO (PMN) Southern (-88&#176;; to -37&#176;; declination) and tropical surveys (-29&#176;; to -9&#176;; declination, and (86+87) Green Bank survey (0&#176;; to +75&#176;; declination). The data contains gaps between -27&#176;; to -39&#176;;, -9&#176;; to 0&#176;;, and +77&#176;; to +90&#176;; declination. The 4850MHz survey data were obtained by tape from J.J. Condon and are comprised of 576 images and are used by permission. Full information pertaining to these surveys are found in the references.<P> Provenance: NRAO, generated by J.J. Condon, J.J. Broderick and G.A. Seielstad, Douglas, K., and Gregory, P.C.. This is a service of NASA HEASARC.

- Publisher:
- Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute
- Description:
- The MIRIS (Multipurpose IR Imaging System) is the main payload of the third Korean scientific small satellite, STSAT-3. MIRIS consists of two near-infrared cameras. One is the Space Observation Camera (SOC) and the other is the Earth Observation Camera (EOC). The SOC is a near-IR (0.9–2.0 μm) imaging camera with an aperture of 80 mm and a field of view of 3.67° × 3.67°, using a 256 × 256 PICNIC sensor. The telescope part of the SOC is cooled down to 200 K by radiative cooling to reduce the thermal noise, and the Dewar part is cooled down to 90 K to ensure the best performance of the IR sensor.

- Near-Earth Asteriod Tracking System Archive
- Short Name:

- Description:
- The NEAT/SkyMorph survey provides access to the archives of the Near Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) project. NEAT is designed to look for potentially hazardous asteroids, i.e., those whose orbits cross the Earth's. Over 200,000 images are available in the NEAT archive. <a href=https://skyview.gsfc.nasa.gov/skymorph/skymorph.html>SkyMorph</a> provides a Web interface to the NEAT images and allows users to select all images in which a given fixed or moving object is found. <p> Unlike most <i>SkyView</i> surveys, the NEAT data are extremely irregular in their spatial distribution. <i>SkyView</i>'s algorithms for mosaicking images together to form large images are not adequate for the NEAT data, so mosaicking is surpressed. Only data within a single NEAT image will be displayed. The system attempts to find the most recent image within which has a offset in both RA and Dec of less than 0.8 degrees. If no such image is found, then an image with the minimum offset is returned, or the search may fail altogether if there are no nearby plates. The NEAT telescope uses an array of 4 CCDs. The backgrounds of the CCDs may differ significantly. <p> The NEAT survey covers approximately 30% of the sky. Extreme southern and low-Galactic latitude regions are unsurveyed. Coverage is otherwise particularly dense in the ecliptic plane. <p> NEAT data consists primarily of groups of three images taken with separations of 20 minutes and almost identical positions. <i> SkyView </i> will normally return the last of a 'triplet'. The SkyMorph site can be used to display an overlay of triplets to look for targets which moved during the interval between images. <p> A catalog of objects detected in the NEAT/SkyMorph pages is accessible through the SkyMorph pages. 'Light-curves' from all images during which an object was in the NEAT field of view can also be generated. <P> The NEAT data values are in arbitrary density units. To enhance the display data are transformed such that all pixels below the median values are scaled linearly to values 0-20, while all pixels above the median are shifted (but not scaled) to values greater than 20.
