Montage As A Visualization Engine

At the AAS Jamuary meeting, I presented a poster on how the Montage Image Mosaic Toolkit (http://montage.ipac.caltech.edu) is increasingly being used as a visualization engine. The poster was designed by Angela Lerias (U.California, Riverside), who is interning with the Montage project.It gives three examples of visualization:

  • Creating large multi-color images for visualization;
  • Sky-coverage maps of wide area time-series photometric surveys; and
  • Integration of  Montage into the JS9 web based image display tool (http://js9.si.edu).
