Coverage: Existing SCUBA-2 observations

This page gives information about one of the coverage maps which is used by the Clash Tool to check for matches with your target coordinates.

Description of Coverage Map

This coverage map is based on the approximate bounding box of all public SCUBA-2 observations (without ancillary instruments).

If you find a match with one of your proposal targets, please search the JCMT Science Archive to see whether the existing data would be sufficient for your project. If the existing data are not sufficient, please add a note to your proposal to indicate why (e.g. the exact source position isn’t covered, or the noise level is too high).
