[KIDS] Announcement: KiDS Internal Data Release 2 (KiDS-INT-DR2)

[Gijs Verdoes Kleijn]

Dear KiDS team,

We present you the KiDS Internal Data Release 2 (KiDS-INT-DR2).


We have selected a focused set of KiDS u,g,r, and i observations of 13 
square degrees in KiDS-N.

We have processed this with the latest KiDS pipeline inside Astro-WISE 
and done intensive quality assessment. KiDS-INT-DR2 serves two purposes:

  *
    to extend the use of KiDS data for science cases. Doing science with
    KiDS is the real test of the delivered survey products, in terms of
    applicability and quality.
  *
    act as a first dry-run for KiDS-ESO-DR1. This is our 1st Public
    Release to ESO, scheduled for March 2013. KiDS-INT-DR2 constitutes a
    main component of the Public Release.


The release note can be found at: 
http://wiki.astro-wise.org/projects:kids:data_deliveries:internaldelivery2.0

At your earliest convencience, please inspect the data prior to the KiDS 
team meeting 12-13 December
We appreciate feedback certainly also prior to the meeting.

At the team meeting the Production Team will be present to discuss 
KiDS-INT-DR2 and give presentations.

Please do not hesitate to contact us for more information.

With kinds regards, on behalf of the full KiDS Production Team,
Gijs Verdoes Kleijn
