GLIMPSE360 is a Warm Mission Spitzer Cycle 6 Exploration Science Program (PIDs 60020, 61070, 61071, 61072, 61073, 70072) that mapped 187 degrees of longitude of the Galactic plane that have not been mapped by previous Spitzer Galactic Plane surveys (GLIMPSE, GLIMPSEII, GALCEN, GLIMPSE3D, Vela Carina, SMOG and Cygnus-X). The specific Galactic longitudes covered by GLIMPSE360 are l=65◦-76◦, 82◦-102◦, and 109◦-265◦. The latitude range is about 2.8◦. The latitude center follows the Galactic warp. GLIMPSE360 completes the full circle of the Galactic plane.
The GLIMPSE360 Archive (GLM360A or the “Archive”) consists of point sources with less stringent selection critera than the Catalog. The information provided is in the same format as the Catalog. The Catalog is a subset of the Archive, but the entries for a particular source might not be the same due to additional nulling of magnitudes in the Catalog because of the more stringent requirements.

The GLIMPSE360 Catalog (GLM360C, or the “Catalog”) consists of the highest reliability point sources. For each IRAC band the Catalog provides fluxes (with uncertainties), positions (with uncertainties), the areal density of local point sources, the local sky brightness, and a flag that provides information on source quality and known anomalies present in the data.
The Cygnus-X Catalog and Archive contain sources from longitudes l=76-82d extracted from data processed using the GLIMPSE pipeline. There are two types of source lists: a high reliability point source Catalog and a more complete point source Archive.

GLIMPSE3D is the third in a series of large area projects to map selected regions of the Galactic plane using the Spitzer Space Telescope Infrared Array Camera (IRAC). GLIMPSEI1 covered the Galactic plane from |l| = 10◦ to 65◦ and |b| < 1◦; GLIMPSEII filled in the inner 20 degrees of the Galactic plane, |l| < 10◦, with vertical extensions up to ±1.5◦ for |l| =5◦to 2◦, and up to ±2◦ from |l| =2◦to 0◦. GLIMPSE3D adds vertical extensions, generally up to |b| < 3◦, but up to |b| < 4.2◦ in the center of the Galaxy. The goal of this coverage is to provide data to study the vertical stellar and interstellar
The GLIMPSE3D Archive (GLM3DA or the “Archive”) consists of point sources with a signal- to-noise > 5 in at least one band and less stringent selection critera than the Catalog. The photometric uncertainty is typically < 0.3 mag. The GLIMPSE3D Catalog is a subset of the Archive, but note that the entries for a particular source might not be the same due to additional nulling of magnitudes in the Catalog because of the more stringent requirements.

The GLIMPSE3D More Reliable Archive (GLM3DMRA) consists of the higher reliability point sources than the Archive. It was produced for the single visit epoch 2 only source lists to provide a higher reliability source list than the Archive. No highly reliable Catalog is produced for this dataset since it requires a source be detected twice in one band. The sources in the More Reliable Archive have the same stringent criteria as the Catalog except two detections are not required in a single band. Two detections in adjacent bands are required (the “1” can include the 2MASS Ks band); for example one detection in band 1 and one detection in band 2.
