DESI-EDR web page spectra links do not display

Question

Hi,

When I use this type of Ra/Dec link I get spectra links across the web page image display

https://www.legacysurvey.org/viewer/desi-edr/?ra=150.12819614137243&dec=3.203346425096713&zoom=15

When I use less qualified Ra/Dec links no spectra links are displaced

https://www.legacysurvey.org/viewer/desi-edr/?ra=87.694302&dec=-21.5672584&zoom=15

Is there an option to always display the spectra links on the web page image display?

Thanks,

Joseph Karpinski

Answer 1

Think I figured this out. Not every target/field has associated spectra.

For those that do, the desi-edr web page displays the spectra links.

Will have to wait to the full release in 2026(?).

We will have a DR1 release in 2024 which might cover the target you are interested in, so you don't necessarily have to wait that long.
