Information on Service 'PLTS Datalink'
This service lets you access cutouts from the Palomar/Leiden Trojan
plates and retrieve scaled versions.
For a list of all services and tables belonging to this service's
resource, see Information on resource 'Scans of the Palomar-Leiden Trojan Survey Plates'
Service Documentation
Most plates had a Kodak 103a-O emulsion, exposed through a WG-2 filter.
One pair per field was taken each month on Kodak 103a-D emulsion,
using a Y-6 filter.
Best effort is made in determining emulsion and filter;
metadata regarding those values are incomplete.
Overview
You can access this service using:
-
dlget --
a datalink interface letting specialized clients retrieve parts of datasets or discover related data. You use this kind of service exclusively in combination with a pubdid, usually via a direct link.
-
dlmeta --
a datalink interface for discovering access options (processed data, related datasets...) for a dataset. You usually need a publisherDID to use this kind of service. For special applications, the base URL of this service might still come handy: http://dc.zah.uni-heidelberg.de/plts/q/dl/dlmeta
-
static --
static (i.e. prepared) data or custom client-side code; probably used to access ancillary files here

Equally likely, however,
it is under development, abandoned in development or otherwise
unfinished. Exercise some caution.
