This document presents HiPS, a hierarchical scheme for the description, storage and access of sky survey data. The system is based on hierarchical tiling of sky regions at finer and finer spatial resolution which facilitates a progressive view of a survey, and supports multi-resolution zooming and panning. HiPS uses the HEALPix tessellation of the sky as the basis for the scheme and is implemented as a simple file structure with a direct indexing scheme that leads to practical implementations.

The Polarisation Sky Survey of the Universe's Magnetism (POSSUM): Science Goals and Survey Description
POSSUM will create a dense grid of up to one million Faraday rotation measurements across 20,630 square degrees of the southern sky, with roughly 30 to 50 measurements per square degree and median uncertainty near one...
