The UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Galactic Plane Survey (UKIDSS-GPS) is a near infrared survey which will map over 1800 square degrees of the Galactic plane in J,H,K bands (1-3 μm) to a depth of 19 magnitudes. It is a successor to the 2MASS survey, probing 3 magnitudes deeper. The GPS plans to map half the plane over the following regions: 141° < l < 230°, −5° < b < 5°; 15° < l < 107°, −5° < b < 5°; −2° < l < 15°, −2° < b < 2°. The angular resolution of the GPS survey is 0.8”, more than a factor of two better than both GLIMPSE and 2MASS. The link to the homepage of the GPS survey can be found here.

This dataset consists of near-infrared photometric maps (J, H, and K bands) in a wide strip covering all the first quadrant and sections of both the second and third quadrants. As of Summer 2016, the most recent publicly available data release is UKIDSS DR10, with more data to become available in future. The cutout service includes the option to ex...
