Add images to surveys.ts #51

Closed vorugantia closed 7 years ago

vorugantia commented 7 years ago

These are the 7 surveys added in this PR, recommended by Nachi:

One more that Nachi recommended was this Planck HFI image, but we would have to convert the FITS file to HiPS ourselves.

Can you split this out into a separate reminder issue and milestone it as "whishlist"?

👍

I have two documentation requests:

for users, list the surveys we currently offer (with the link to CDS, as you did above) here: https://github.com/gammapy/gamma-sky/wiki/Datasets#images You could also point to the full list and say that suggestions for other surveys to include in that selection field are welcome.
for developers, leave a comment (maybe in that code file) how to obtain all this info for a given survey, so that I don't have to remember in case I want to add other surveys in the future.

  },

Okay, I created the issue (I also just fixed the spelling on "wishlist" milestone). As for documentation requests:

Done. One thing is that for some of the links (e.g. the one for GLIMPSE360), the link appears dead when you click on it. But for some reason, Aladin Lite can still recognize them and load the images. I added this as a note.
Done in latest commit.

The Planck one showing the gas is really nice!

I think we should mention some of the available images in the proceeding (of course stressing that these are just examples and 300+ are really available). I'd even be in favour of adding a "table or available MWL images", so that people just skimming the writeup will notice it, or alternatively put a bullet list in the text to make it more visible.

vorugantia commented 7 years ago

I agree, it would definitely be good to mention available surveys.

I can't finish the proceeding draft today, but I can try to get it done tomorrow.

cdeil commented 7 years ago

No worries with the proceedings draft. We have to hand it in in October.

Just let me know whenever you have a first outline of contents and we'll start working on it any time.
