Your comments

Dear Nico,

Many thanks for getting in contact with us. The team has experience in embedding the ESASky Javascript API in Angular and in GWT but unfortunately not yet with ReactJS, and we don't know of another team that has tried this. We will be very happy to help you, therefore we'll contact you via email for further correspondence. 

In the meantime, I'm sure you've tried the examples in the ESASky API documentation?:  https://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/esdc/esasky-javascript-api

Your portal to ASTRON data sounds very exciting and thanks for considering ESASky!

Best regards,

Debbie, on behalf of the ESASky team

Dear Salim,

We would love to have ESASky in German, but currently do not have the resources to do the translation. We will however add this to our plans and let you know when it's available. 

Best regards,

Deborah on behalf of the ESASky team

Dear Jhmadden,

Many thanks for your request. As you've seen, there is not currently a way to upload your images as jpg or png. We will add this to our backlog as a good feature to have in ESASky. 


Also, we do have the option to upload as HiPS. What you'll need to do is follow the steps in the Aladin hipsgen pages to create a HiPS from your images:

https://aladin.u-strasbg.fr/hips/HipsIn10Steps.gml


Note that you'll have to follow the jpeg options lower down in the page. For specific questions or issues, in particular related to generating a HiPS from an equirectangular map, please contact the CDS team who created hipsgen: cds-question@unistra.fr


Once you have created a HiPS, the steps in ESASky are: click on the skies button, select the + button, choose the option 'HiPS from your computer' and select the folder that was created in the above steps. Your images should now appear as a layer in the skies menu, titled user.

I hope you find this useful.


Many thanks for your suggestion.
Kind regards,

Deborah, on behalf of the ESASky team

Dear Nora, 

We are pleased to inform you that the metadata and footprints of the XMM-Newton images and spectra are now updated daily in ESASky.

Many thanks for your continued support for ESASky!

Best regards,

Debbie

Dear Becky,

Many thanks for your suggestion. We are currently looking into the options of including very large sky maps (HiPS) to ESASky that are currently not available, and PanSTARRS is certainly one of the most important to include.

We'll let you know when this has been added.

Many thanks and regards,

Deborah, on behalf of the ESASky team
