CfA Dataverse

This is the Astronomy data repository at Harvard. It is currently open to all scientific data from astronomical institutions worldwide. Administration and support is provided by the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA) in collaboration with Harvard Library (HL) and the Institute for Quantitative Social Science (IQSS). Infrastructure is provided by Harvard University Information Technology Services.

The Astronomy Dataverse Network plays an important role in fulfilling your Data Management Plan requirements (e.g. as mandated by NSF), and for providing data re-use and citation opportunities. Find out more about our team by exploring the Seamless Astronomy and Wolbach Library teams at the CfA. We are also connecting the Astronomy Dataverse to the indexing services provided by the SAO/NASA Astrophysical Data Service (ADS).

The Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE) Dataverse(Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics) Sep 5, 2016MilkyWay3D Dataverse The Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE) is composed of several individual surveys and together they provide almost complete longitudinal coverage of the Galactic plane at \|b\| <= 1.0°. Most of the plane is imaged at a spatial resolution of <2” at wavelengths of 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8.0 μm; however, certain longitudes in...
