Hi. We recently measured photometric redshifts for 1.6 million sources in two LSST DDFs (W-CDF-S and ELAIS-S1) based on forced photometry, as presented in https://arxiv.org/abs/2103.13417. This might be useful. Thanks! --- ## [Photo-z for strong lensing science?](https://www.rubin.community/t/photo-z-for-strong-lensing-science/4813)

A science question regarding photo-z came to me by email, which I’m reposting here for further discussion. Has any thought been given for photometric redshifts for strong lenses? LSST will find 100,000 strong lens syst… --- ## [Will ML solve photometric redshifts?
