The Spitzer Science Center's Source List project will enhance the Spitzer Heritage Archive (SHA) by uniformly processing mosaics and extracting individual sources in approximately 1500 square degrees, including approximately 30 million sources. The SSC Source List project will consist of the four Spitzer IRAC channels, between 3 and 8 microns, and the 24-micron MIPS channel. We are in the process of expanding this Source List to take advantage of the sensitivity of the MIPS 70um and 160um imaging modes, resulting in a well-calibrated set of FIR images across approximately 600 square degrees of the extragalactic sky. The resulting list of FIR sources will enable a variety of science projects, such as allowing us to better characterize the FIR luminosity functions and SED evolution of star-forming galaxies.
