GUVcat and GUVmatch provide unique source catalogs in FUV and NUV constructed from the more than 600 million GALEX source detections. Also included are cross-matches of the GUVcat to Gaia DR2 and SDSS DR14. Flags are included to check for artifacts, as well as for existing multiple observations, and flags indicating whether a source is within the footprint of a large galaxy or stellar cluster (see Figure 5 in Bianchi et al. 2017) where source identification and photometry may be unreliable or inconsistent across the bands. GUVcat is composed using tiles from the AIS (All-Sky Imaging Survey), with a depth of about 19.9/20.8 in FUV/NUV ABmag. View collection page >
