Abstract
We present the multiwavelength photometry of two Frontier Fields massive
galaxy clusters MACS-J0717 and MACS-J1149 and their parallel fields, ranging
from HST to ground based K and Spitzer IRAC bands, and the public release of
photometric redshifts and rest frame properties of galaxies found in cluster
and parallel pointings. This work was done within ASTRODEEP project and aims to
provide a reference for future investigations of the extragalactic populations.
To fully exploit the depth of the images and detect faint sources we used an
accurate procedure which carefully removes the foreground light of bright
cluster sources and the intra-cluster light thus enabling detection and
measurement of accurate fluxes in crowded cluster regions. This same procedure
has been successfully used to derive the photometric catalogue of MACS-J0416
and Abell-2744.
The obtained multi-band photometry was used to derive photometric redshifts,
magnification and physical properties of sources. In line with the first two FF
catalogues released by ASTRODEEP, the photometric redshifts reach $\sim
