input_catalog

Overview

The input_catalog table is used to store the information on catalogs for sources.

Columns

Here are the columns in the input_catalog table:

Column Name Type Description Required1 Default
input_catalog_id int The ID of the input catalog (*)
input_catalog_name str The name of the input catalog *
input_catalog_description str A brief description of the input catalog ""
upload_id str A 16-character string assigned at the submission of the target list ""
active bool A flag to indicate if the catalog is active True
is_classical bool A flag to indicate if the catalog is for a classical-mode observation False
is_user_pointing bool A flag to indicate if user-defined pointings are provided False
created_at datetime The date and time in UTC when the record was created.
updated_at datetime The date and time in UTC when the record was last updated.

Unique constraint

  • input_catalog_id is a unique constraint and the primary key of the table. The input_catalog_id column is used as follows.
Start End Description
0 999 Reserved for major survey catalogs
1000 2999 Sky object catalogs
3000 3999 Flux standard star catalogs
10000 89999 General use with autoincrement
90000 99999 Reserved for internal use (engineering by March 2024)

Notes

General catalogs must use the autoincrement feature of the input_catalog_id column. Therefore, don't specify the input_catalog_id when inserting a new record. Command line tools will check the IDs when one tries to insert a new record with a specified input_catalog_id and return an error if the ID is in the range with auto-increment.

Available catalogs

These are example of the available input catalogs.
