Abstract
We measured gas-phase metallicity, ionisation parameter and dust extinction
for 1795 representative local star-forming galaxies using integral field
spectroscopy from the SDSS-IV MaNGA survey. We self-consistently derive these
quantities by comparing observed line fluxes with photoionisation models using
a Bayesian framework. We also present the first comprehensive study of the
