VizieR Online Data Catalog: VVVEXMAP-BULGE High resolution reddening map (Surot+, 2020)

Here we provide the database for E(J-Ks) color excess based on VVV bulge data VVVEXMAP-BULGE. The database is comprised of 196 bulge fields maps of 1.5x1.2deg² of VVV, each one based on deep photometric data in JKs from MS-BULGE-PSFPHOT and defined on a regular grid of 610x500 nodes, covering the range of (l,b) of each VVV bulge tile. The resolution of the maps ranges between 6 arcmin to a few arcsecs, depending on stellar density (higher near Galactic plane and center). For each node we provide their galactic coordinates, E(J-Ks), estimated error, average resolution (measured as the average separation of the tracer stars to the center of the node), maximum resolution (as the maximum separation), as well as tile of origin. The dispersion of E(J-Ks) for each node can be recovered by multiplying the E(J-Ks) error by sqrt(20).
