Sloan Digital Sky Survey at the CFA Data Release 6
Introduction
A selection of the SDSS Data Release 6 (DR6) databases and associated files
has been transferred to CFA. Each of these has been condensed by choosing a
(we hope!) useful subset of the columns, and converted to
Starbase
tables, which are rows of tab-separated columns of ASCII characters.
The majority of the "best" photometric database (not
including the image thumbnails) and all of the spectral databases (as reduced
at Princeton by David Spergel et al.) have been so condensed. The files
locally are stored in the directory:
- /data/astrocat/SDSS-dr6
Much, much more information than could be provided here is available at the
SDSS main web site
http://www.sdss.org.
To ensure you get the latest version of the Starbase programs and the tools
described below, please set your PATH variable to include the
following two directories at its beginning:
/data/oiropt/starbase
/data/oiropt/bin
