COSMOS Cutouts

General instructionson how to use the cutouts service. The COSMOS Archive is here.

Single Position
Coordinate/Object:
Cutout Size: (arcsec) [range: 1-180 arcsec]
Coordinate Examples: 150.23983 +2.56283 eq  |   10h 00m 57.56s +02d 33m 46.2s Equ J2000   |   236.52321 +42.42665 ga  |  10005347+0205032
Default:    Equatorial J2000       Instructions

NOTE: For single cutous of COSMOS data larger than 180 arcsec, you can use Atlas, where the search size acts as your cutout size, up to 2.0 degrees.
Multiple Positions
(User Table Upload)
Table Upload Instructions: The input table must be in IPAC standard format. Cutout location coordinates (ra and dec) can be in decimal degrees, sexagesimal or galactic (J2000). You must specify the table column number or name of the ra and dec, otherwise columns 1 and 2 are assumed, respectively; the size column or name is optional. Cutout size may be specified in a column in the input position table, allowing for a different cutout size per position. Or, to have the same size cutouts for all input positions, specify one value in the Cutout size (arcsec) field.
Table:     Instructions
RA column name or number in table:
DEC column name or number in table:
Cutout size column name or number:
Or, specify a uniform cutout size here for each position in the table (this will supersede table column cutout size info above):
