AXIS Data reduction status
4
AXIS archival and ingestion into XID-DB

• Imaging data. IoA to deliver to XID-DB directly
• Reduced images
• Source lists
• Ingestion files
• Spectroscopic data. IFCA to deliver to XID-DB
• Reduced, wavelength and flux calibrated spectra
  (object, objectsky and error arrays in
  FITS/ASCII format)
• Calibration spectra (spectrophotometric
  standards)
• Ingestion files

We have to make sure that the data becomes public
simultaneously with publications!

AXIS imaging programme
(includes M. Watsons PATT Imaging Programme R.
McMahons advance observations)
Optical INT/WFC Near IR INT/CIRSI
6
AXIS identifications(as of March 1, 2001)
Plus another gt 50 spectra (mostly
ALFOSC) awaiting reduction
7

  0.03 ct/s (10-13 erg cm-2 s-1)
• 40 sources found
• 13 identified
• 25 Pending data reduction

Future concerns

• On-the-fly WFC data reduction to feed WYFFOS
  spectroscopic run by end Jul 01 (r-band)
• Allocated runs in semester 01B
• WHT/WYFFOS 20 Oct-23 Oct 01 (D/G)
• WHT/ISIS 23 Jan-25 Jan 02 (B)
• INT/WFC 31 Dec 01 - 05 Jan 02 (B/G). CIRSI not
  available?
• Galactic Plane survey problems lack of suitable
  fields
