All-sky maps in Hierarchical Progressive Survey (
HiPS)
format for viewing with
Aladin
or other software supporting HiPS (astrogeek stuff: The maps are based on a
HEALPIX grid with NSIDE=8192).

FITS
FITS images of some regions are provided. Contours or other overlays and
manipulations for analysis or presentation purposes can be done with DS9,
iraf, python and other software.

REQUESTS: We can create high quality images of other
fields, with other resolutions or filtering based on DR1 contents (e.g.
magnitude cuts). Our ability to respond is limited and will depend on the
quantity of requests.
