This package generates the catalog by computing the NIR magnitudes of the optical stellar sources in the PANSTARSS DR2 data. - +The details of this work can be found in the __report.pdf__ file. # Packages ## irgsctool:

This is a python package aimed to compute the NIR magnitudes of the optical sources in the PANSTARRS stack-photometric data by modelling them with the Kurucz, Castelli-Kurucz and Phoenix stellar atmospheric models. This package also validates the computed NIR magnitudes with the observed NIR data from UKIDSS (if it is available). The methodology implemented in this python package is implemented on twenty test-fields across the TMT's observable sky and the generated as well as validated IRGSC is available in the generated_irgsc directory (seec details below). Most of the sources have the computed NIR magnitudes similar to the observed. The generated catalog contains astrometric information from GAIA DR3 also. Read the section below to see the nature of IRGSC.
