vizquery.py : the vizquery package query all VizieR catalogues using ASU parameters metadata retrieving: get columns/table information and list large tables
Examples :
- list big catalogues : vizquery.py -l
- get columns information for 2mass (=II/246) : vizquery.py -source=II/246 -i
- query GAIA (I/337/gaia) arroud M1 (10arcsec) : vizquery.py -source=I/337/gaia -c=M1 -c.rs=10
- get hipparcos (HIP=A) in votable : vizquery.py -source=I/239/hip_main -mime=votable -out.max=50 "HIP=1"
Using dedicated script: find_...py
- query 2mass arround M1: find_2mass.py M1
- query sdss12 arround '217.488910+36.086880': find_sdss-dr12.py "217.488910+36.086880"
- query gaia by offset (allows to get the whole table by parts) : find_gaia_edr3.py --offset 0..1000
- query 2mass with jamg constraint: find_2mass.py --jmag="<11" You can also query with constraints see --help
- query sdss using identifier: find_sdss-dr12.py --objID=1237662225689281592 --mime=tsv
API Example:
import cdsclient.find_sdss9 as sdss
process = sdss.QueryCatVizieR()
process.position = "217.091350+35.985222"
process.radius = 120
process.query_cat(limit=10)
data = process.get()
print (data)
