The skyCatalogs package
This package contains
- code to create sky catalogs from input like cosmoDC2 (for galaxies) and similar catalogs for other source types
- an API to access information in the catalogs and products, such as flux calculations, derived from the catalogs
Sky Catalogs are chiefly intended for use by simulation programs. The physical representation is meant to compactly represent information needed to compute fluxes at a given time, under specified conditions (e.g. band).
For more complete information on installation and use see https://lsstdesc.org/skyCatalogs/
