The SBN Survey Image Service is a REST API that enables a user to retrieve archive images and cutouts thereof from the Planetary Data System's Small-Bodies Node (PDS SBN). For example, a user may request a full-frame image from the ATLAS survey archive, or a small cutout around their object of interest. The returned data may be in FITS, JPEG, or PNG formats. The service can also return the image's PDS label.
The SBN Survey Image Service (SIS) is deployed and available for PDS Small-Bodies Node survey holdings. See the API User’s Guide or the API documentation for details.
