Galactic Plane Infrared Polarization Survey (GPIPS) Dataverse(Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics)
Sep 5, 2016
The Galactic Plane Infrared Polarization Survey (GPIPS) covers 76 sq. deg in the Galactic midplane between 18° <= l <= 56° and -1° <= b <= +1°. It uses H-band (1.6 microns) linear polarimetry to determine magnetic field orientations in the plane of the sky near dense molecular clouds. The full GPIPS data set will contain almost 6 million stars, wit...
Sep 5, 2016 - Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) Dataverse
Edward Wright, 2016, "WISE Extended Observations: Continuum (2D)", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HXAXM6, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This dataset consists of mid-infrared photometric data in four bands (3.4, 4.6, 12, and 22 µm) over the entire sky. The ALLWISE image atlas contains 18,000+ four band calibrated 1.5x1.5 degree fits files, in addition to depth-of-coverage and noise maps. These atlas images were created by coadding almost 8 million single-exposure images. Individual...

Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) Dataverse(Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics)
Sep 5, 2016
The Wide-Field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) maps the entire sky at mid-infrared wavelengths--3.4, 4.6, 12, and 22 microns—corresponding to an angular resolution of 6.1, 6.4, 6.5, and 12”. WISE achieves a 5σ point source sensitivity of better than 0.08, 0.11, 1, and 6 mJy for bands 1-4, which corresponds to Vega magnitudes of 16.5, 15.5, 11.2, an...
Sep 5, 2016 - MIPS Galactic Plane Survey (MIPSGAL) Dataverse
Sean Carey, 2016, "MIPSGAL Extended Observations: Continuum (2D)", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/BO5LL4, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This dataset consists of 24 & 70 micron maps covering latitudes -1° < b < +1° and longitudes l < 69° and l > 292°. Images are available for download via either an image cutout service (here) or by downloading the tiles directly at a specified data download link (here). In addition to the calibrated data, data products available include standard dev...

MIPS Galactic Plane Survey (MIPSGAL) Dataverse(Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics)
Sep 5, 2016
The MIPSGAL survey covers 278 sq. deg of the inner Galactic Plane at 24 μm (6” resolution) and 70 μm (18” resolution). It is meant to act as a longer wavelength component to the Spitzer-GLIMPSE Survey of the Galactic plane. Its two main science goals are to 1) identify high mass protostars and 2) probe properties of interstellar dust in the inner g...
Sep 5, 2016 - Herschel Infrared Galactic plane survey (Hi-GAL) Dataverse
Sergio Molinari, 2016, "Hi-GAL Extended Observations: Continuum (2D)", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/AGXXHR, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This dataset consists of photometric maps at five wavelengths: 70, 160, 250, 350 and 500μm, which combined cover the peak of the SED for dust temperatures between 8 ≤ T ≤ 50K. The first suite of Hi-GAL data was released in Spring 2016, covering 68°≥ l ≥ -70° and |b| ≤ 1°, with more data to come in future. The public Hi-GAL DR1 data can be retrieved...

Herschel Infrared Galactic plane survey (Hi-GAL) Dataverse(Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics)
Sep 5, 2016
The Herschel Infrared Galactic plane survey (Hi-GAL) is an unbiased photometric survey covering |b| <= 1.0°, 68 > l > -70° in five passbands between 70 and 500 μm. The nominal beam sizes range from 5-35". Its key science goals include understanding the distribution of the ISM temperature, the formation of molecular clouds, the timeline of high-mass...
