Description |
This catalogue data release refers to individual tile images for VMC tiles completed by end of September 2011, namely tile LMC 6_6 (including the 30 Doradus star forming region) and LMC 8_8 (including the South Ecliptic Pole region). These images refer to at least twelve epochs in Ks band. The total sky coverage of this release is ~3.5 deg2 in the LMC.
