Is it possible to open all HIPS available for the current view automatically?

Lukasz Wyrzykowski 5 months ago updated 5 months ago 2

Now I need to go through all wavelengths and surveys to check which ones are there. I would like to automatically check which HIPS are available for the current location and be able to load them all in the HIPS list. 

GOOD, I'M SATISFIED

Dear Lukasz,

Yes, unfortunately we do not currently have this functionality in ESASky, but we will add it to our backlog and try to include it very soon in ESASky.

In the meantime, you can do this in Aladin desktop (https://aladin.cds.unistra.fr/, requires java). If you open the tool, go to your location of interest, then in the left hand side open 'Others' and 'HiPS', and also 'Image' (which are all the HiPS from CDS), everything that appears green should have data available in that region. 

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Deborah

Thanks! Good to know it is possible in Aladin and you might add this to ESASky. Good luck!
