The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is a project to survey a 10000 square degree area on the Northern sky over a 5 year period. A dedicated 2.5m telescope is specially designed to take wide field (3 degrees in diameter) images using a 5x6 mosaic of 2048x2048 CCD`s, in five wavelength bands, operating in drift scan mode. The total raw data will exceed 40 TB. A processed subset, of about 1 TB in size, will consist of 1 million spectra, positions and image parameters for over 100 million objects, plus a mini-image centered on each object in every color. The data will be made available to the public after the completion of the survey

The Sloan Digital Sky Survey is the deepest large scale survey of the
sky currently available. SkyView dynamically queries the SDSS archive
(currently release DR9) to retrieve information and resample it into the user
requested frame. Further information on the SDSS and many additional services
are available at the <a href="https://www.sdss.org">SDSS website</a>. Provenance: Sloan Digital Sky Survey Team. This is a service of NASA HEASARC.

Description:
The Stellar content, MAss and Kinematics of Cluster Early-type Dwarf
galaxies (SMAKCED_) project is a survey of 121 Virgo cluster early type
galaxies. This service publishes deep near-infrared (H band) images
obtained by SMAKCED together with `resulting decompositions`_ and other
properties of the galaxies in the sample.

FLITECAM was an infrared camera operating in the 1.0 - 5.5 um waveband. It consisted of a 1024x1024 InSb detector with 0.475"x0.475" pixels and used refractive optics to provide an 8' diameter field of view. The instrument had a set of filters for imaging, and grisms for moderate resolution spectroscopy. The filter suite consisted of standard Barr filters used for imaging at J, H, K, L and M in one filter wheel. A second filter wheel held a selection of narrow-band imaging filters including Pa-alpha, Pa-alpha continuum, 3.07 um H2O ice, 3.3 um PAH, L-narrow and M-narrow. Additionally there were order sorting filters for use with the grisms. A selection of three grisms was available to provide medium resolution (R ~ 1500) spectra over the entire wavelength range.
FORCAST was a dual-channel mid-infrared camera and spectrograph sensitive from 5 - 40 um. Spectroscopy was also possible using a suite of grisms, which provided coverage from 5 - 40 um with a low spectral resolution of R ~ 200.
FPI+ was the standard tracking camera for the SOFIA telescope with a 1024x1024 pixel science grade CCD sensor. As a science instrument it was intended to be used as a fast frame-rate imaging photometer in the 360 - 1100 nm wavelength range. The FPI+ CCD had a plate scale of 0.51 arcsec/pixel and a square field of view of 8.7x8.7 arcminutes. Its permanent installation on the SOFIA telescope allowed for its use while any other science instrument was installed on the main Science Instrument flange. Five Sloan Digital Sky Survey filters u', g', r', i', z' and a Schott RG1000 NIR cut on filter were available.
HAWC+ was a far-infrared camera and imaging polarimeter. It was designed to allow total and polarized flux imaging in five broad bands between wavelengths of 50 um and 240 um. Diffraction-limited imaging yielded spatial resolutions of ~5 - 20 arcseconds with fields of view ~2 - 10 arcminutes, respectively.
