Dear Ole,
.
Thank you for your inquiry about use of the 2MASS data products.
.
It is the case that all 2MASS image, catalog and database products are
released in the public domain. We state this explicitly on many of
the image galleries (e.g.
http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/2mass/gallery/index.html),
but you are correct that it isn't actually stated for the catalogs.
.
We do ask that when any 2MASS image or catalog products are used
that the acknowledgement given in section I.8.b be included
(see http://www.ipac.caltech.edu/2mass/releases/allsky/doc/sec1_8b.html).
.
"This publication makes use of data products from the Two Micron All Sky
Survey, which is a joint project of the University of Massachusetts and
the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center/California Institute of
Technology, funded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration
and the National Science Foundation."
.
Sincerely,
The 2MASS Helpdesk
