Images#

Images of the sky in the six LSST filters with a variety of calibration levels.

The schema browser includes tables of image metadata (ObsCore).

Image data products are available via the butler, SIA, and TAP services. See the Data access and the Tutorials pages to get started with these services.

Coadd and template images#

Combinations of multiple calibrated images of the same region of the sky to achieve greater depth (to detect fainter objects), or for use as templates in difference image analysis.

Visit and difference images#

Individual observations are processed and calibrated to produce visit images, and templates are subtracted to produce difference images.

Raw exposures#

The unprocessed images received directly from the camera.

Mask planes#
