gavo@ari.uni-heidelberg.de+49 6221 54 1837catalogssurface-photometrygalaxy-distancesobservational-cosmology Metadata for CARS region files. An ASCII ds9 region file containing saoimage/ds9 polygon entries (in pixel coordinates). They represent the CARS image masks described in Sect. 3.4 of 2009A&A...493.1197E. Polygons originating from different masking procedures are encoded with different colours (look at expressions such as '# color=yellow' at the end of each line). We offer this file so that interested users can construct own masks containing only parts of our global MASK key. (typical gzipped file size per field: 1MB) The colour coding in these files is as follows: - yellow: masks from our object density analysis and stars identified in the USNO-A2 catalogue - green: stars identified in the GSC1 and GSC2 cataogues - magenta: masks around extended haloes of bright stars - red: masks from our asteroid track analysis2009A&A...493.1197Ehttp://dc.g-vo.org/tableinfo/cars.regions3/276,297 4/669-671,692-693,712,714,1093,1108,1110,1166-1167,1200,1202,2287,2298-2299,23021.65537e-19 6.01953e-19OpticalInfraredcarsImages and data from from the CFHTLS archive research survey, a multi-band dataset spanning 37 square degrees of sky in high galactic latitudes.cars.regions Metadata for CARS region files.
