License: Creative Commons Attribution license (CC-BY) More datailes here. Find more here. Content The table results from a query which joins two tables:

"PhotoObj" which contains photometric data "SpecObj" which contains spectral data.

16 variables (double) and 1 additional variable (char) 'class'. A class object can be predicted from the other 16 variables. Variables description: objid = Object Identifier ra = J2000 Right Ascension (r-band) dec = J2000 Declination (r-band) u = better of deV/Exp magnitude fit (u-band) g = better of deV/Exp magnitude fit (g-band) r = better of deV/Exp magnitude fit (r-band) i = better of deV/Exp magnitude fit (i-band) z = better of deV/Exp magnitude fit (z-band) run = Run Number rerun = Rerun Number camcol = Camera column field = Field number specobjid = Object Identifier class = object class (galaxy, star or quasar object) redshift = Final Redshift plate = plate number mjd = MJD of observation fiberid = fiberID Comments

A four-color UVGR intermediate-band photometric system (Thuan-Gunn astronomic magnitude system) is discussed in [1]. The Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometric system, a new five-color (u g r i z) wide-band CCD system is described in [2] The variables 'run', 'rerun', 'camcol' and 'field' features which describe a field within an image taken by the SDSS. A field is basically a part of the entire image corresponding to 2048 by 1489 pixels. A field can be identified by: - run number, which identifies the specific scan, - the camera column, or "camcol," a number from 1 to 6, identifying the scanline within the run, and the field number. The field number typically starts at 11 (after an initial rampup time), and can be as large as 800 for particularly long runs. - An additional number, rerun, specifies how the image was processed. The variable 'class' identifies an object to be either a galaxy (GALAXY), star (STAR) or quasar (QSO).

Inspiration The Sloan Digital Sky Survey has created the most detailed three-dimensional maps of the Universe ever made, with deep multi-color images of one-third of the sky, and spectra for more than three million astronomical objects. It allows to learn and explore all phases and surveys - past, present, and future - of the SDSS.
