HST data filesΒΆ

These data files are needed for calculations involving HST bandpasses. To install them locally, first download https://ssb.stsci.edu/trds/tarfiles/synphot1.tar.gz . Move it to the appropriate location and then extract it:

$ tar -xzf synphot1.tar.gz
$ rm synphot1.tar.gz

Note

Downloading and extracting the files might take a while as the tarball itself is almost 100 MB.

Once installation is complete, you will see some sub-directories containing data as described below:
