Abstract

The UKIDSS Galactic Plane Survey (GPS) is one of the five near-infrared Public Legacy Surveys that are being undertaken by the UKIDSS consortium, using the Wide Field Camera on the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope. It is surveying 1868 deg2 of the northern and equatorial Galactic plane at Galactic latitudes -5° 90°. (6) IPHAS-GPS optical-infrared spectrophotometric typing. The (i′ - J) versus (J - H) diagram is used to distinguish A-F type dwarfs, G dwarfs, K dwarfs and red clump giants in a field with high reddening. © 2008 RAS. ; link_to_subscribed_fulltext
