Galaxy Photometry for NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database
|
|
| This project's goal is to provide a set of galaxy photometry tools to NASA/IPAC Extragalactic
Database (NED). The system will allow new and experienced researchers to perform a full surface
photometry analysis of any 2D data in NED's holdings or, by downloading the package, on their own
optical or near-IR datasets. A heavy emphasis has been placed on interactive/visualization tools plus
substantial documentation for the researcher new to the field of galaxy photometry. This project's
modest budget will add NVO-type functionality to NED and act as a prototype to future expansions
for data centers. |
