The IRAS Galaxy Atlas (IGA) is a high resolution image atlas of
the Galactic plane at 60 and 100 microns. It has been produced using the
IRAS satellite data. The HIRES program was developed by the Infrared Processing and
Analysis Center (IPAC)
to produce high resolution (~ 1 arcmin) images from IRAS data using the
Maximum Correlation Method (H.H. Aumann, J.W. Fowler and M. Melnyk, 1990, Astronomical Journal, 99, 1674). Associated with
the IGA Data Atlas are The Extended IRAS Galaxy Atlas (EIGA) and Mid-Infrared Galaxy Atlas (MIGA), which are both servered from IPAC.
If you use IGA data, please cite the dataset Digital Object Identifier (DOI): 10.26131/IRSA93.
