VISTA SCIENCE ARCHIVE

The current version of DR6 does not contain GPS or UDS detection/source data and no new UDS mosaic. Users wishing to access GPS/UDS data should use the DR5plus database.

CrossID form

This form allows you to upload a file of coordinates and cross match the positions with object table(s) in the WSA. Notes on using this form can be found on crossID notes. The supplied file should contain the J2000 RA/Dec coordinates of your objects (one object per line) in decimal degrees or sexagesimal. Values in the file should be separated by spaces or commas, for example the following lines will be parsed correctly
