Description
In this work we present a new tool called pyHIIextractor used to search for HII regions in nearby universe galaxies observed with Integral Field Spectroscopy data. The code extracts the main properties of ionized gas emission lines and the underlying stellar populations. It also models the diffuse ionized gas component and decontaminates the information from the HII regions due to this contribution. The code has been applied in complete samples such as AMUSING++: 678 galaxies (obtaining a catalog with ~52,000 HII regions) or in particular data, e.g., CALIFA: NGC2906 and MaNGa: IC342.
