1.1 Images and catalogs in Astro-WISE

This section gives an overview of all database table names (and Python class names) representing images and catalogs. Where possible a reference/link is provided to the appropriate HOW-TO.

See also the page /portal/aw_datasources.shtmlshortcuts to datasets, which contains links to tables in the database for several datasets.

1.1.2 Catalogs

Below are several tables describing the handling of catalogs in Astro-WISE.

Table: Overview of naming scheme for catalogs

Catalogs Description SourceList E.g. SExtractor catalog AssociateList Contains lists of SourceList ID and Source ID pairs

Table: Overview of naming scheme for classes pointing to SourceLists

Classes pointing to SourceLists Description GalFitModel Galfit model of a single source in a SourceList GalPhotModel Galphot model of a single source in a SourceList

Table: Overview of naming scheme for classes creating new SourceLists

Classes creating new SourceList(s) Description CombinedList A SourceList which is the combination of two other SourceLists PhotRedCatalog Links a new SourceList with photometric redshifts to   all associated input SourceLists and an AssociateList LightCurve (MDIA) Creates several SourceLists to store result   of variability determination

Table: Overview of naming scheme for other classes related to catalogs

Other catalogs Description VariabilityFrame (VODIA) Stores a catalog in file format with light curves
