5
TOPCAT: Load Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Cone Search: - Service available on the web. - The list is obtained from a VO registry.
6
TOPCAT: Table Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Data: - Scroll around. - Sort rows. - Define subsets.
7
TOPCAT: Table Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Columns: - Information about each column. - Columns can be hidden/revealed, and new ones added.
8
TOPCAT: Table Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Subsets: - See all the row subsets defined, and to define more. - Can be defined using algebraic expression, or graphically.
9
TOPCAT: Table Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Statistics: - Calculate statistics for all or a selection of rows.
10
TOPCAT: Plot Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 - Set axis labels and ranges - Different colors or symbols for different sets of data. - Error bars - Configurable plot markers - Zoom in or out. - Select a Subset. 1D histograms: - Set bin width and offset
11
TOPCAT: Plot Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 2D: - Plot pairs of columns.
12
TOPCAT: Plot Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 3D: - Plots on Cartesian axes. - Rotate the axes by dragging the mouse.
13
TOPCAT: Plot Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Spherical Polar: - Plots 3D plots on spherical polar axes. - Plot points only on the surface of the sphere or on the interior. - Rotate the axes by dragging the mouse.
14
TOPCAT: Plot Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Stacked Line: - Plots one or more X-Y line plots using the same X axis but different Y axes. - This can be particularly useful for visualizing time- series data.
15
TOPCAT: Plot Windows Francisco Jiménez Esteban – SVO – fran@laeff.inta.esGranada 27-28 de octubre de 2009 Density Maps: - The intensity of color at each pixel reflects the number of points that fall within its bounds. - Pixel size can be changed, cut levels can be altered. - This is very useful for analysis and visualization of extremely crowded plots.
