1 For presentation purpose, the ACS parallel exposures are omitted from the GOODS-N and GOODS-S field maps, and a simplified WFC3 tile pattern is shown. See the simulated exposure maps for the ACS field maps and WFC3 tile patterns.
2 Simulated expousre maps in units of seconds. The exposure maps include only new data that CANDELS will contribute. Already existing data (e.g. ACS data in GOODS and WFC3 data in UDF) are not included.
