Version 1.0
The tool provides the credible areas of gravitational-wave sky
localizations issued by the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA collaborations (LVK).
The resulting credible area is encoded with the data-structures
Multi Order Coverage map (MOC).
MOC is a Virtual Observatory standard approved by the
IVOA (International Virtual Observatory Alliance) to manage sky coverage. Each MOC is visualized in the Aladin Lite
with various background image surveyes. The whole list and the image surveys are accessible
by clicking the icon
manage layers located at the top left.
The MOC maps are created and manipulated with the WebAssembly library
MOCWasm.
The tool accepts the two LVK sky map formats: the
multiorder format (with .fits extention) and the unflattened skymap (with .fits.gz extention).
Better performances are achieved with the multiorder format.
