This directory contains Legacy science products delivered by the 
"Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE)" 
Legacy Science Program. See:
		http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/legacy/

for more information about the science program.

The enhanced data products from this Legacy Program 
are organized into 12 deliveries, all but one of which are 
superceded by subsequent deliveries. The data are still
available in some cases.:

You can retrieve the final data products using the wget scripts:

20070416_enhanced_v2/0_wget_glimpse_20070416_all.script: entire final delivery
		(3987 files)

or using the wget scripts within each subdirectory to retrieve
the data products in the corresponding subdirectory.

These data are also available through a query-able interface 
at the NASA/IPAC Infrared Science Archive (IRSA) at:
        http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/GLIMPSE/
for image data; for catalog data, go to Gator:
        http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/applications/Gator/
pick "Spitzer" and then pick "GLIMPSE".

More recent deliveries (e.g., from GLIMPSE II or GLIMPSE 3D) 
may take time to appear here.


The original science products, as processed through the Spitzer
pipeline, have been archived, along with all other Spitzer data
and can be retrieved using the Spitzer Leopard interface.

Recommended download strategy for pipeline-processed products:

   a.  Download the Spitzer Pride software
        (http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/propkit/spot/)
   b.  Install Spitzer Pride
   c.  Start Leopard
   d.  Select Popular Products Query from the File menu 
       and choose the data sets you want
   e.  Select Download Selections from the file menu and let 
       the Leopard Subscriber manage the data download from the 
       Popular Products website. 

We have created a status page

        http://ssc.spitzer.caltech.edu/archanaly/status

that shows the processing and archiving status for all of the
instrument campaigns. We update this frequently as we populate 
the archive. Check there for release status of observations
for this, and other, Spitzer programs.
