WAVES DMUs available for direct download

Preliminary input catalogues for WAVES wide (i.e., waves-n and waves-s) and WAVES deep (i.e., waves-deep) are available via Dropbox Download. Note that deep is just an RA, Dec subset of wide. These catalogues are still being tweaked but are now under version control. To use these catalogues for science don't forget to select only duplicate=0 objects to avoid double selecting objects from the overlap regions. Ultimately these catalogues are built from the ~1200 one sq degree tiles available from the Tile Downloader tab.

The catalogue files are *very large* and that largest catalogues may not download. To help we've broken waves-n and waves-s into 1 degree declinations stripes. Hence waves-n_0.1.fst is the full waves wide north catalogue [29GB] ,and waves-n_0.1_2.5.fst is the catalogue extending from +3 to +2 in declination [4GB] etc waves-nb_0.1 is a bright catalogue with a cut at r<21.5 mag. waves-deep.fst is the deep catalogue only.

Both fst and fits versions are available for all files
