K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog (EPIC)

Dataset

The K2 Mission (Howell+, 2014PASP..126..398H) uses the Kepler spacecraft to obtain high-precision photometry over ~80 day campaigns in the ecliptic plane. The Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog (EPIC) provides coordinates, photometry, and kinematics based on a federation of all-sky catalogs to support target selection and target management for the K2 mission.
