Science Data Model Schemas

This schema browser provides a view on a curated subset of the Rubin Observatory’s database schemas for user-facing data products (the Science Data Model, or SDM). These pages are rendered directly from the latest revisions of schema definition YAML files maintained in the sdm_schemas GitHub repository.

Schemas available here for browsing include:

  • Data Preview 0.3

    Data Preview 0.3 (ten-year version): Contains the catalog products of a Solar System Science Collaboration simulation of the results of SSO analysis of the wide-fast-deep data from the full LSST ten-year dataset.

  • Data Preview 0.2

    Data Preview 0.2 contains the image and catalog products of the Rubin Science Pipelines v23 processing of the DESC Data Challenge 2 simulation, which covered 300 square degrees of the wide-fast-deep LSST survey region over 5 years.

  • Alert Production Database

    The Alert Production Database (APDB) contains the catalogs resulting from image differencing during nightly Prompt Processing as well as the results of daily Solar System Processing.

  • HyperSuprimeCam

    The HyperSuprimeCam (HSC) Schema describes the outputs of the latest data release production pipelines for HyperSuprimeCam. This schema is used by ci_hsc, which verifies the schema of the pipeline output files.

  • LSSTCam ImSim

    The ImSim Schema describes the Science Pipelines outputs for on Imsim simulated full-focal-plane LSSTCam data. The data preview dataset schemas (e.g. DP01, DP02) are derived from this one, but are fixed at the time of that data release.

  • ConsDB - LATISS

    The Consolidated Database Schema for LATISS describes the tables and views available as fixed metadata to describe LATISS exposures, visits, and parts thereof.

  • ConsDB - LSSTComCam

    Consolidated Database for LSSTComCam

  • ConsDB - LSSTComCamSim

    The Consolidated Database Schema for LSSTComCamSim describes the tables and views available as fixed metadata to describe LSSTComCamSim exposures, visits, and parts thereof.

  • ConsDB - StarTrackerFast

    Consolidated Database for StarTrackerFast

  • ConsDB - StarTrackerNarrow

    Consolidated Database for StarTrackerNarrow

  • ConsDB - StarTrackerWide

    Consolidated Database for StarTrackerWide
