The dataset contains the measurement sets (MS file) of the LOFAR observations from the Boötes field and the Toothbrush cluster. The dataset was used in the experiments of the paper: LEAP: Looking beyond pixels with continuous-spaceEstimAtion of Point sources Pan, H., Simeoni, M., Hurley, P., Blu, T. & Vetterli, M. In: Astronomy & Astrophysics, in press, 2017 The data was provided as a collaboration between ASTRON and IBM within the DOME project. The data was acquired for a LOFAR sky survey of the Boötes field: LOFAR 150-MHz observations of the Boötes field: Catalogue and Source Counts Williams, W. L. , Hardcastle, M. J. & 33 others In: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. 460, 3, p. 2385–2412 and the Toothbrush cluster (RX J0603.3+4214): Simulating the toothbrush: evidence for a triple merger of galaxy clusters Brüggen, M., van Weeren, R. J., Röttgering, H. J. A. In: Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters. 425, 1, p. L76--L80 In case of questions concerning the measurement set, please contact the original authors for details. We have also included the three catalogs used in the experiments, which are converted from their original FITS table to Numpy arrays: skycatalog.npz is the catalog of the Boötes field: https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article-lookup/doi/10.1093/mnras/stw1056 TGSSADR1_7sigma_catalog.npz is the TGSS ADR1 source catalog: http://tgssadr.strw.leidenuniv.nl/catalogs/TGSSADR1_7sigma_catalog.fits NVSS_CATALOG.npz is the NRAO/VLA Sky Survey: ftp://nvss.cv.nrao.edu/pub/nvss/CATALOG/
