There are several methods available for retrieving PanSTARRS images and catalogs. They include capabilities that range from simple form interfaces for quick queries to full database access using Structured Query Language (SQL) for large, long-running queries. There are tools suitable for interactive use, including the sophisticated MAST Portal interface that has capabilities of browsing, filtering, plotting, etc. There are also programmatic interfaces that can be used within scripts. This page briefly summarizes the tools and modes of access and links to pages describing the services in more detail. |
