The band-merged and calibrated catalog is provided in dbfits as FITS files, which subdivides the catalog by location on the sky in order to make each file size managable. A table of all (uncalibrated) detections (decaps2_detect, 5.2 TB) and the band-merged and calibrated objects (decaps2_flux, 1.4 TB) in the Large Survey Database (LSD) format is provided because that is how the authors built and query DECaPS, but since LSD is no longer supported, it is only provided as a convenience to users with an LSD installation
For users with an LSD installation, note that LSD has a very deep file structure and the default depth of wget (5 levels) is insufficient. The following commands are recommended.
wget -r -l 15 --no-parent --cut-dirs 6 -nH -R "index.html*" http://decaps.skymaps.info/release/data/files/DR2_REDUX/DATABASE/LARGE_SURVEY_DATABASE/decaps2_flux/
wget -r -l 15 --no-parent --cut-dirs 6 -nH -R "index.html*" http://decaps.skymaps.info/release/data/files/DR2_REDUX/DATABASE/LARGE_SURVEY_DATABASE/decaps2_detect/
