Search and Retrieval

UIT data of interest may be found by using the UIT search form. Users may specify search criteria as well as output format (see Search Help). On the search results page, click on the Entry ID to view a browse image, examine the FITS header, or check for associated scientific publications. Then mark the datasets of interest to be downloaded as a tar file. Note that UIT files can be very large.

A quick search of the UIT catalog may also be performed. Enter a target name or coordinates in the UIT Target Search form, located at the top of the left navigation menu.

Users may also peruse the catalog of UIT data. Pick an object category and click on object names or datasets. Clicking on the object name brings up a preview window, while clicking on datasets initiates a pop-up window from which the data can be downloaded to the desired area in your computer.

The data may also be retrieved via anonymous ftp. See Obtaining UIT Data for information. If you have problems retrieving your data, you can contact the help desk via the link at the bottom of this page.
