Target and (Astro-)WISE technologies - Data federations and its applications
E. A. Valentijn, K. Begeman, A. Belikov +13
After its first implementation in 2003 the Astro-WISE technology has been rolled out in several European countries and is used for the production of the KiDS survey data. In the mu…
The first and second data releases of the Kilo-Degree Survey
Jelte T. A. de Jong, Gijs A. Verdoes Kleijn, Danny R. Boxhoorn +46
The Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) is an optical wide-field imaging survey carried out with the VLT Survey Telescope and the OmegaCAM camera. KiDS will image 1500 square degrees in four…
Monitoring the photometric behavior of OmegaCAM with Astro-WISE
Gijs A. Verdoes Kleijn, Konrad H. Kuijken, Edwin A. Valentijn +5
The OmegaCAM wide-field optical imager is the sole instrument on the VLT Survey Telescope at ESO's Paranal Observatory. The instrument, as well as the telescope, have been designed…
The Astro-WISE datacentric information system
K. Begeman, A. N. Belikov, D. R. Boxhoorn +1
In this paper we present the various concepts behind the Astro-WISE Information System. The concepts form a blueprint for general scientific information systems (WISE) which can sa…
Target for LOFAR Long Term Archive: Architecture and Implementation
Andrey Belikov, Danny Boxhoorn, Fokke Dijkstra +2
The LOFAR Long-Term Archive (LTA) is a multi-Petabyte scale data storage for the processed data of LOFAR telescope. We describe the adaptation of the WISE concept implemented by Ta…
Automatic Optimized Discovery, Creation and Processing of Astronomical Catalogs
Hugo Buddelmeijer, Danny Boxhoorn, Edwin A. Valentijn
We present the design of a novel way of handling astronomical catalogs in Astro-WISE in order to achieve the scalability required for the data produced by large scale surveys. A hi…
The Astro-WISE Optical Image Pipeline: Development and Implementation
J. P. McFarland, G. Verdoes-Kleijn, G. Sikkema +3
We have designed and implemented a novel way to process wide-field astronomical data within a distributed environment of hardware resources and humanpower. The system is characteri…
Astro-WISE: Chaining to the Universe
Edwin A. Valentijn, John P. McFarland, Jan Snigula +18
The recent explosion of recorded digital data and its processed derivatives threatens to overwhelm researchers when analysing their experimental data or when looking up data items…
The central stars of the planetary nebulae NGC 7027 and NGC 6543
D. A. Beintema, P. A. M. van Hoof, F. Lahuis +6
Infrared spectra of NGC 7027 and NGC 6543 ranging from 2.4 to 45 micron were obtained with the Short Wavelength Spectrometer on board the Infrared Space Observatory. A first analys…
