UKIRT Infrared Deep Survey J-band

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The UKIDSS survey is the next generation infrared survey, a successor to 2MASS.

Description

It will ultimately cover 7000 square degrees in the northern sky at both high and low Galactic latitudes and goes about three magnitudes deeper than 2MASS in the coverage area. Most data is taken in the J, H and K bands.

A Y band is available in some regions. UKIDSS is comprised of several distinct surveys in different regions of the sky. Of primary interest to SkyView users (since they have the largest sky coverage) are the Large Area Survey, the Galactic Plane Survey, and the Galactic Clusters Survey. There are deep and ultadeep surveys which cover much smaller fractions of the sky.

The planned coverage for the UKIDSS surveys may be seen at the <a href="wsa.roe.ac.uk/theSurveys.html"> UKIDSS survey page</a>. All UKIDSS data products are published by the Wide-Field Astronomy Unit (WFAU) at the University of Edinburgh through the <a href="wsa.roe.ac.uk/">WFCAM Science Archive (WSA)</a> which includes more detailed coverage information for each data release. SkyView currently uses the DR11 data release.

Many thanks to the WSA team at WFAU for providing an interface to make all the latest data easily accessed. Note that coverage is not uniform across the different bands so that at a given point there might be H and K band data, but nothing in the J band. Provenance: UKIDSS Project.
