JWST Galactic Center survey — cloudc

Release v1.1-2026.07 · built 2026-07-11 · ← all fields

6 withheld as bad astrometry. The pipeline repudiated the mosaics these were staged from -- the m2 astrometry checkpoint corrected the offsets table and quarantined every mosaic built before it: F182M, F187N, F212N, F405N, F410M, F466N. They will return when the field is re-staged from current products.

Curated color images -- the published renders. Tuned stretches, channels chosen far apart, and each program combined with itself.

Full provenance for these renders: cloudc_curated.json -- source path and checksum, the checksum of the bytes served, and whether the AVM astrometry survived resizing. These are curated renders, not staged data products; the mosaics they were made from are in the table below.

Views across several fields

Catalogs

Open the catalog manifold viewer prototype 466,443 stars from Cloud C NIRCam photometry. Built from the v1.0-2026.06 catalog files; it can differ from the catalog files listed below. WebGL; best on a desktop GPU.

Viewer caveats

No catalogs in this release. Photometry for these data is still being produced; when it is ready it will be added here under a new version.

Astrometric provenance

This release version does not ship a pointing-correction table. The field has one, but it was not staged with this version, so nothing here describes the solution these products were built on.

6 reference-tie measurement(s) exist for this field, and none is shown here: they are not attached to what this version ships — either the version carries no pointing-correction table, or the measurements postdate the release. A later version's page carries the ties that describe it.
