Galactic Legacy Infrared Midplane Survey Extraordinaire

The Galactic Legacy Infrared Midplane Survey Extraordinaire (GLIMPSE) program covered the Galactic plane with the Spitzer IRAC instrument. GLIMPSEI covered 220 sq. degrees at |l|=10d-65d and b=-1d - +1d. GLIMPSEII covered the Galactic Center, l=-10d - +10d. GLIMPSE3D added vertical extensions, typically to |b|<+3d. GLIMPSE360 covered the outer Galaxy (l=65d-265d) with IRAC 3.6 micron and 4.5 micron imaging. The Vela-Carina program covered l=255d-295d.
