CASDA Queries (astroquery.casda
)¶
The CSIRO ASKAP Science Data Archive (CASDA) provides access to science-ready data products from observations at the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) telescope. These data products include source catalogues, images, spectral line and polarisation cubes, spectra and visbilities. This package allows querying of the data products available in CASDA (https://casda.csiro.au/).
Listing Data Products¶
The metadata for data products held in CASDA may be queried using the query_region()
method.
The results are returned in a Table
.
The method takes a location and either a radius or a height and width of the region to be queried.
The location should be specified in ICRS coordinates or an astropy.coordinates.SkyCoord
object.
For example:
>>> from astroquery.casda import Casda
>>> from astropy.coordinates import SkyCoord
>>> from astropy import units as u
>>> centre = SkyCoord.from_name('NGC 7232')
>>> result_table = Casda.query_region(centre, radius=30*u.arcmin)
>>> print(result_table['obs_publisher_did','s_ra', 's_dec', 'released_date'])
obs_publisher_did s_ra s_dec released_date
deg deg
