skies
The skies
directory contains blank sky locations derived
at the pixel-level from the Legacy Surveys images. Sky locations
are stored in files that are grouped by (nested) HEALPixel number
in filenames that resemble skies-hp-{HP
}.fits, where HP
is
the HEALPixel number.
The skies
directory may also contain an unpartitioned sub-directory.
This exists because the sky locations are originally generated in
Legacy Surveys bricks before being re-partitioned into HEALPixels.
The unpartitioned sub-directory contains files assembled according to
which bricks occupy each HEALPixel rather than by which sky locations
occupy each HEALPixel.
