The FLS extragalactic component
E. FLS Data Products
Finally, the workshop considered which FLS data products would be most
useful in an early release for scientists planning to use SIRTF. The
recommended wish-list is:
- A "high-reliability" source list giving positions, flux densities, and their uncertainties, plus variability indicators and data-quality flags
- Band-merging information so that sources in different SIRTF wavebands can be associated with each other and with objects found in the ancillary surveys
- individual frames should be available to users, plus
- mosaiced, coadded images on a "best effort" basis
- tools to view all bands (SIRTF and anciallary) near a given position on the sky
They should be released as soon as possible, even though the calibration may still have large uncertainties and be subject to later revision.
