Description:
This DSA hosts data release 1 of the ATLAS Survey housed at the Wide Field Astronomy Unit at the Univeristy of Edinburgh. The initial aim of ATLAS is to survey 4500 deg2 of the Southern Sky at high galactic latitudes to comparable depths to the SDSS in the North. The VST ATLAS will be the first step towards a panoramic digital survey of the Southern Sky in the optical bands. The ATLAS will complement the proposed VISTA Hemisphere Survey in the South.

The Auriga-California molecular cloud is a large region of relatively modest star formation that is part of the Gould Belt. The Herschel Space Observatory program OT1_pharvey01_3 ("The Auriga-California Molecular Cloud: A Massive Nearby Cloud With Powerful Diagnostics For Early Stages of Star Formation", PI Paul Harvey) observed a 14.5 square degree area of the cloud in five far-infrared bands.
Extracted sources from the Bochum Galactic Disk Survey. We provide
mean photometry in U, B, V, z, r, and i bands. Note that sources in
different bands are not matched. Also, sources sitting in the regions
imaged in multiple fields have not been matched even within one band.
In i and r, BGDS light curves are available. See related services for
details.
The Bochum Galactic Disk Survey is an ongoing project to monitor the
stellar content of the Galactic disk in a 6 degree wide stripe
centered on the Galactic plane. The data has been recorded since
mid-2010 in Sloan r and i simultaneously with the RoBoTT Telecsope at
the Universitaetssternwarte Bochum near Cerro Armazones in the Chilean
Atacama desert. It contains measurements of about 2x10^7 stars over
more than seven years. Additionally, intermittent measurements in
Johnson UVB and Sloan z have been recorded as well.
