Query astronomical catalogs with Python APIs or libraries. Also some support for optical SED modeling.
The best supported use case is a cone search in radio and optical catalogs. See psquery_cone_examples.ipynb for sample of cone search queries.
- astropy
- astroquery
- urllib
- requests
- pandas
Optional (for specific data sets):
- pyvo
- noaodatalab
- cfod
- mastcasjobs:
pip install git+https://github.com/rlwastro/mastcasjobs@master
Optional (for SED modeling):
- sedpy
- extinction
- dustmaps
python setup.py install
mastcasjobs may require some hand holding. sedpy requires lots of hand holding (only needed for optical SED modeling).
