Overview
|
Spitzer data from a number of programs covering the Galactic Plane are available
here. These programs include the original "Galactic Legacy Infrared Midplane
Survey Extraordinaire" (GLIMPSE) Legacy Program, as well as its extensions:
GLIMPSE II, GLIMPSE 3D, GLIMPSE 360, Deep GLIMPSE, Vela-Carina, GLIMPSE Proper,
and APOGLIMPSE. In addition, the GLIMPSE team has processed the data from the
"Spitzer Mapping of the Outer Galaxy" (SMOG) and "A Spitzer Legacy Survey of the
Cygnus-X Complex" (Cygnus-X) Legacy
Programs.
If you use GLIMPSE data, please cite both the dataset Digital Object Identifier (DOI): 10.26131/IRSA405 and other appropriate references listed in the documentation. |
