IRSA will provide a dedicated interface for SPHEREx data, which will include standard search, retrieval, and visualization capabilities. In addition, IRSA will host SPHEREx-specific search, retrieval and analysis tools. Some of these tools will be available via IRSA’s web interface allowing integration with all other products served by IRSA. These tools are:
Spectrophotometry Tool: creates spectra at a user-specified position using the same algorithm as the pipeline.
LVF Image Cutout Tool: allows users to make cutouts, without resampling, from LVF spectral images.
Custom Mosaic Tool: creates cube or single FITS image, with user-specified output bands.
