Welcome to the SDSS Survey Operations home page.  To see our observing progress, click on the following links.  The visual images show the amount of sky that we plan to survey, as well as the area that we've covered to date.  The graphs show the amount of data acquired to date against our baseline performance plan. The baseline performance plan and full set of progress graphs can be found here.
