Photometry of SDSS Data: A How-To Guide

[randa177]

Does anyone have any idea how to get the photometry of SDSS data?

Does anyone have any idea how to get the photometry of SDSS data?

From http://cas.sdss.org/dr6/en/" .

Is there anything in particular that you are looking for?

 

[randa177]

Actually I would like to find the spectra and photometry for a set of objects,
I can find the spectra here:
http://www.sdss.org/dr6/tutorials/colorconstraints.html
I am wondering if I can find the photometry in a similar way?

Do you have the ObjID of the objects?

If so, then it's a piece of cake! Just use http://cas.sdss.org/astro/en/tools/explore/obj.asp" .

For example, ObjID is 588298663036649507, http://cas.sdss.org/astro/en/tools/explore/obj.asp?id=588298663036649507"'s what the Explore tool gives you, complete with spectra AND photometry!

If you don't know the ObjID, but do know the RA and Dec, then it's just one more step ...
