MC Exinctions by Positions

Do not use this service. We will soon completely shut it down, since it is no longer necessary and actually far more cumbersome than the TAP-based procedure for doing what this service did. See the Service Info for how to add extinction columns to your tables.

Enter positions within the LMC to obtain the extinction values. Note that no values will be returned for positions we do not have extinction values for.

If you have VOTable data, the crossmatch service with a sufficiently large search radius might work better for you.

Decimal ICRS RA and Dec, one pair per line
