- Description:
- The Westerbork Northern Sky Survey (<i>WENSS</i>) is a low-frequency radio survey that covers the whole sky north of delta=30 degree at a wavelength of 92 cm to a limiting flux density of approximately 18 mJy (5 sigma). This survey has a resolution of 54" x 54" cosec (delta) and a positional accuracy for strong sources of 1.5''. <p> Further information on the survey including links to catalogs derived from the survey is available at the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20041204180313/http://www.strw.leidenuniv.nl/wenss/"><i>WENSS</i> website</a>. <p> The <i>WENSS</i> survey is included on the <b>SkyView High Resolution Radio Coverage </b><a href="https://skyview.gsfc.nasa.gov/images/high_res_radio.jpg"> map</a>. This map shows coverage on an Aitoff projection of the sky in equatorial coordinates. <p> Provenance: <i>WENSS</i> Team.

- Description:
- The Wisconsin Ultraviolet Photo-Polarimeter Experiment (WUPPE) was the spectropolarimetry component of the three ASTRO instruments that flew on Space Shuttle missions in December 1990 and March 1995. A halfwave spectropolarimeter provided medium resolution spectropolarimetry for research into the interstellar medium, hot stars, stars with circumstellar material, interacting binary stars, novae, solar system objects, and active galaxies. A Lyot analyzer obtained low resolution observations of faint targets, but due to calibration problems did not produce scientifically useful data. The WUPPE instrument provides a unique data set, one of the few providing polarimetric data in the ultraviolet portion of the spectrum.

- WISE 3\.4 Micron All-Sky Survey>: All-WISE data release
- Short Name:

- Description:
- From the <a href="https://wise2.ipac.caltech.edu/docs/release/allsky">WISE mission site:</a>. <hr> NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) mapped the sky at 3.4, 4.6, 12 and 22 micrometers in 2010 with an angular resolution of 6.1", 6.4", 6.5" and 12.0" in the four bands. WISE achieved a 5 sigma point source sensitivities better and 0.08, 0.11 1 and 6 mJy in unconfused regions on the ecliptic in the four bands. Sensitivity improves toward the ecliptic poles due to denser coverage and lower zodaical background. <p> The WISE All-WISE includes all data taking during the WISE full cryogenic phase, from January 7, 2010 to August 6, 2010, that were processed with improved calibrations and reduction algorithms and combines this with the NEOWISE postcryogenic survey to form the most comprehensive view of the full mid-infrared sky. bibcode=1995ApJ...451..564V,2010ApJ...713..912W <hr> <p> SkyView includes the four WISE bands as separate surveys. Many non-image data products are available at the WISE site. Note that WISE data is distributed in relatively large (>50 MB) image files. When SkyView generates an image for a part of the sky where it has not yet cached the data from the IPAC server there may be a delay as full tiles are downloaded even when only a small fraction of a tile is needed. Images in cached regions, are generated much faster. Access to the WISE data uses the VO SIA interface maintained at IPAC. Even when data is cached, the SIA service must still be available for successful queries. Provenance: WISE Archive (IRSA/IPAC). This is a service of NASA HEASARC.

- WMAP Nine Year Galaxy Removed
- Short Name:
- WMAP

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- These survey represents a combination of the 9-year data combined in a way that is intended to minimize the contribution from the galaxy. The data measure the temperature deviation from a uniform black body. <p> The original data are available at the <https://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov>LAMBDA archive</a>. <p> The original data are stored in HEALPix pixels. SkyView treats HEALPix as a standard projection but assumes that the HEALPix data is in a projection plane with a rotation of -45 degrees. The rotation transforms the HEALPix pixels from diamonds to squares so that the boundaries of the pixels are treated properly. The special HealPixImage class is used so that SkyView can use the HEALPix FITS files directly. The HealPixImage simulates a rectangular image but translates the pixels from that image to the nested HEALPix structure that is used by the WMAP data. </p> Provenance: WMAP Mission/LAMBDA archive.
