The CSC science analysis threads have not yet been updated to match release 2.0 of CSC, but still provide a general overview of how the data products can be used.
Learn how to query the catalog, retrieve and manipulate catalog data in the context of several science scenarios, with examples using the CIAO, Sherpa, and ChIPS analysis software.

These threads provide instructions for accessing the catalog via applications other than CSCview, such as DS9 and Google Earth.
