Data products:

HEALPix nside=1024 all-sky column density maps for the specified velocity range are generated from HI4PI Gaussian components based on EBHIS and GASS observations. Calculated are the distributions for CO-dark molecular hydrogen (H2), the total estimated CO-dark and CO-bright molecular hydrogen (H2tot), and the total atomic hydrogen (Htot). Only Gaussian components with center velocities vmin < vLSR < vmax are used. For a detailed explanation see the references below.

The processing of your personal data is according to EU regulation 2016/679, see https://astro.uni-bonn.de/en/institute/datenschutzerklaerung. A synchronous data processing is not possible. Therefore it is necessary that you give your e-mail address for a proper processing of your request (for the name you may use a nickname). You will get a notificatinon how to download your data. There is no further processing of personal data except for the case of repeated failure of a request. In this case the e-mail address is used to get in contact to the user for a clarfication what went wrong. Using our service implies that you have given permission to be sent messages related to the processing of your data.

EBHIS is based on observations with the 100-m telescope of the MPIfR (Max-Planck-Institut für Radioastronomie) at Effelsberg. GASS was observed with the Parkes Radio Telescope as part of the Australia Telescope which is funded by the Commonwealth of Australia for operation as a National Facility managed by CSIRO.
