From @jgizis:
My group has had a RNAAS accepted which re-reduces the flare spectra
of an L dwarf. There's a dozen or more fits files. What the best way
to submit them to simple? I assume it's okay to have multiple spectra
of an object including during an unusual event.
Yes, absolutely ok to have multiple spectra -- that's the beauty of the database structure over a spreadsheet.
I do have the simple form link, it's more a question of the fits files
themselves.
I'm not sure what you mean by the "simple form". Do you mean the Spectra Ingest Template?
Regarding the FITS files, two things:
-
Ideally, the FITS files are easily readable as a specutils.Spectrum object. The astrodb_utils package has a check_spectrum_plottable function to test this.
-
The FITS files themselves require a "reliable" permalink. I've been uploading them to the BDNYC AWS S3 bucket. The bandwidth costs have been negligible so far I'm happy to serve these spectra for you. You can provide a .zip file with the spectra in this issue, I'll upload, and then let you know the URL format for the ingest.
Does this answer your questions?
