ANO-5: Data processing, archiving and dissemination centers

LAM/OSU Pythéas is involved in several National Observation Actions (ANO) defined and labelled by the Institut National des Sciences de l’Univers (INSU) in Astronomy-Astrophysics (AA). The CeSAM operates services labelled  AA – National Observation Action #5, Centres for data processing, archiving, and dissemination.

ASPIC is a portal dedicated to giving access to added values produced from several public spectroscopic or spectrophotometric surveys. Theses added values are hosted at the Centre de données astrophysiques de Marseille (CeSAM), Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Marseille (LAM), France.

The expertise offered by ASPIC aims to address the whole measurement chain, including redshift measurements and reliability assessment, access to spectra and matched ancillary data like multi-band photometry via a dedicated information system.

GAZPAR is a service giving access to astrophysical tools for the estimation of photometric redshifts, as well as physical parameters, from methods adjusting spectral energy distribution (SED) to multi-wavelength observed catalogues. The proposed tools are Le Phare, CIGALE, HyperZ, and Beagle (see the descriptions below) and benefits from the expertise of associated astronomers.

You just have to upload your catalogues on a private and safe space and with the GAZPAR interface you define and configure the SED modelling tools you want to use (Le Phare, CIGALE, or HyperZ). You can then retrieve the package to execute the SED modelling tools on your computer and/or ask for our astronomers to process the request and provide you with the results, some quality tests and reports.

In this context, the CeSAM operates services labelled “National Observation Action #5, Centres for data processing, archiving, and dissemination” :
