TL;DR
AstroInspect is a web-based tool that streamlines the visual inspection of astronomical objects by integrating multiple survey data sources into an intuitive GUI, facilitating tasks like classification and validation.
Contribution
This paper introduces AstroInspect, the first integrated web platform for seamless access and visualization of heterogeneous astronomical survey data for inspection tasks.
Findings
Successfully identified 80 Hα emission-line galaxies in Hydra I cluster.
Enabled efficient visual inspection of 981 candidate galaxies from S-PLUS data.
Demonstrated AstroInspect's utility in supporting astronomical data analysis workflows.
Abstract
The rapid growth of imaging and spectroscopic surveys has intensified the need for efficient tools that support visual inspection, a practice that remains essential for tasks such as classification, catalog refinement, and validation of automated methods. Existing solutions, however, often require the use of multiple platforms and complex workflows to integrate heterogeneous data. To address this challenge, we present the first release of the AstroInspect (https://astroinspect.github.io), a web-based system which ensures seamless access to several astronomical resources. The system provides an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) through which users can upload catalogs of objects defined by celestial coordinates. AstroInspect automatically enriches these catalogs with complementary information, including imaging, spectroscopic, and photometric data retrieved in real time from…
