List of Hyperleda finds

[Tom Oskar Ortleb]

When an image is successfully solved and then annotated by Hyperleda, some regions of the imaged area show a big amount of background galaxies - sometimes way over 100!

I would like to know whether a list of all found Hyperleda objects in the current image is available or could be provided (e.g.) as a simple text list? The labels / object numbers are often long and overlapping, thus such a list could be useful for the inspection of crowded regions.

Hi Tom,

I have tought about it but the online query give much information and you can click further. Then it doesn't make sense to create somthing for the local version. Try the online Bowser Hypeleda or Simbad. See attached.

Cheers, Han

Hi Han,

I actually had overlooked and underrated the full power of this ASTAP feature. Basically, I had never tried to paint a rectangle on a solved image instead of just clicking a single target.

The rectangle is the key to transport a whole region to Hyperleda which than delivers a full list of targets (plus data) without requiring any additional user action - GREAT!

There, we also can easily select displaying the data as a text list (which I was asking for) or in a different kind of presentation.

Even better: Selecting a target from that list, it can be sent back to a locally running instance of Aladin. The target gets instantly located and displayed inAladin's GUI which then offers tons of overlay options and data for further investigation.

Thanks for this feature and reminder (to me).

Cheers, Tom
