Hello,
Apologies if this has been discussed previously. Will Lasair provide access to the full alert stream? Ultimately I’m looking for a data product, or to create a data product described here as the “Lite” version of the alert stream: stripped of history and cutouts. My understanding is that egress bandwidth would be the major concern.
Cheers,
Alec
Hi Alec – The Lasair-ZTF has had such a “lightweight” stream for a couple of years now, its used to drive a real-time display with a raspberry pi. I’m sure the Lasair-LSST will do something similar. The ZTF attributes are:
objectId, ra, dec, jdmin,jdmax, gmag, rmag, ncand, sherlock_classification
and you can get it with the topic lasair_2Lightweight from kafka.lsst.ac.uk. More info here or just DM me and say what you what to do. – Roy
Hi @alec_b612 , can you confirm if @roy’s response provided what you were looking for? If so, could you please mark it as the solution? If it wasn’t quite what you were looking for, please provide further clarification and we can keep this thread open for additional discussion.
