Crossmatching and inspecting spectra

Look at the spectra of some targets#

Note

All references to best should be substituted with the new mwmlite.

Let's say you have a couple of Source Identifiers from Gaia Data Release 3 that you want to check if they were surveyed by SDSS-V.

For this, we can use the Crossmatch menu to find them with Explorer. Simply paste in a selection of identifiers you have (newline separated) and watch it go!

Pro Tip!

Use the Targets View alongside crossmatching to get a good look at your data. You can compare it to our internal catalogid!

Filtering down the RGB to some metal-poor giants!

Now let's say we want to look at some spectra. To do this double click on any point in the scatter plot and it'll take you to the Target page for that object.

Go straight from the dashboard to the spectra in Zora!
