A Brief Introduction To FITS
Top/Science/astronomy/software/Image_Processing_and_Data_Analysis/FITS_Image_Format
http://fits.gsfc.nasa.gov/fits_intro.html

Extractions: The discussion on this page represents the views of the FITS Support Office. It does not necessarily represent the official position of the IAU FITS Working Group. FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) is a data format designed to provide a means for convenient exchange of astronomical data between installations whose standard internal formats and hardware differ. A FITS data file is composed of a sequence of Header Data Units (HDUs). The header consists of keyword=value statements, which describe the organization of the data in the HDU and the format of the contents. It may provide additional information, for example, about instrument status or the history of the data. The data follow, structured as the header specifies. The data section of the HDU may contain a digital image, but, except for the first HDU, it doesn't have to . Other possible formats include tables and multidimensional matrices that are not images. An HDU need not contain data. If the first HDU contains data, they must be organized as an array of one or more dimensions; in subsequent HDUs, called extensions, other organizations are possible, consistent with certain rules.

Extractions: aa200c.zip : JPL ephemeris reader; size 300 KB. AA200 reads astronomical ephemerides, in the data format produced by Jet Propulsion Laboratory, and reduces the barycentric coordinates to printouts of geocentric and topocentric place. Specific configurations for the DE406 CD-ROM from Willmann-Bell, DE406, DE405, DE404, DE403, DE400, DE245, DE200, DE102, and DE118I.ZIP ephemerides are supplied. The ephemeris data files themselves are not supplied; get them from Willmann-Bell or from JPL's ftp site. Answers for DE200 from this program should agree with Astronomical Almanac tabulations from about 1984 onward. Additionally, the program can reduce star catalogue positions given in either the FK4 or FK5 system. It can also find positions from heliocentric orbital elements. Source code listings in C language are supplied with MSDOS (Microsoft and Borland compilers) and Unix make files. The archive includes an MSDOS executable program configured for the new Willmann-Bell CD ROM. Latest update 4/17/00. Previous version aa200b.zip

http://aa.usno.navy.mil/software/mica/micainfo.html

Extractions: Ordering Information The Multiyear Interactive Computer Almanac, MICA, is a software system that provides high-precision astronomical data in tabular form for a wide variety of celestial objects. MICA calculates, in real-time, much of the information tabulated in the benchmark annual publication, The Astronomical Almanac (see Annual Astronomical and Navigational Almanacs in Publications ). However, MICA goes beyond traditional almanacs by enabling the user to calculate data for user-specified locations at user-specified times within a sixteen-year interval (1990-2005). Designed primarily for professional applications, MICA is intended for intermediate-to-advanced users. The MICA manual provides a chapter on astronomical background, but basic knowledge of astronomical terminology and positional astronomy is assumed. MICA provides essential data for use in: Astronomy and astrophysics Space science Geodesy and surveying Geophysics Meteorology Environmental science Operations planning Accident reconstruction and litigation Illumination engineering Architecture Photography Specifically, MICA provides the following information:

Products include astronomical telescopes and accessories, eyepieces, CCD imaging equipment, astronomical software, spotting scopes, binoculars, and microscopes
http://www.meade.com/catalog/meade_epoch/meade_epoch_2000_01.htm

Extractions: displays up to 19 million celestial objects on your personal computer. Meade Epoch 2000 astronomical software permits a significant advance in the way amateur astronomers prepare for their observing sessions at the telescope, as well as in the way CCD images are processed. For Epoch 2000 resolves two basic astronomical issues: (a) Epoch 2000sk sky software presents on the display of a personal computer a detailed simulation of the entire celestial sphere; (b) Epoch 2000ip image processing software permits professional-level analysis and processing of the digital images yielded by CCD imaging cameras. Use Epoch 2000sk to zoom-in on telescopic fields smaller than one arc-second, view the entire 180° sky in one PC display, or image any sky area at any scale of your choosing. Zoom to a sky scale that coincides with the actual field of view of your telescope with any given eyepiece, and print out star charts of these fields for use at the telescope. Applications of Epoch 2000sk in these ways are almost limitless. With star positions displayed as precisely as 0.01 arc second, Epoch 2000sk allows the presentation of even complex star fields just as they actually appear through the telescope, without the simplifications of sky software that can camouflage essential detailed information.

http://www.physlink.com/Education/software_origin6.cfm

Extractions: Intuitive and versatile - these are the two platinum qualities of Origin 6.0 - data analysis and presentation software made by Microcal Software, Inc. My experience with Origin comes from using the product on a daily basis for my research work in the field of nonlinear and fiber optics. I quickly realized that the two most important qualities that make Origin distinct from the other data analysis and presentation software are it's beautifully intuitive interface and it's mighty versatility Origin 6.0 provides ease-of-use, power, and speed for technical graphics and data analysis in Windows. You can easily import data or open Excel workbooks directly. 2D and 3D graphs are created quickly and effortlessly with just a single click. Graph elements can be modified by double clicking to get a specialized dialog box. Prominent analysis features include descriptive statistics, differentiation, integration, filtering, FFT, linear and nonlinear curve fitting, and peak finding. Final graphs can be exported as EPS, AI, JPEG, and many other common types.

Give us feedback Sign up for our newsletter: From constellations and planets to galaxies, and comets, Scientific Astronomer helps you determine which objects and events are visible from your location and tells you exactly when and where to look for them. You can even pinpoint the optimal dates and times to get the best naked-eye view of specific objects including stars, low-orbit satellites, and the asteroid Vesta. Scientific Astronomer contains a wealth of searchable information about the properties and movements of over 9000 stars and other objects. You can also add information, such as your own list of stars, comets, asteroids, and satellites, along with the behavior of their orbital paths. With Scientific Astronomer you can produce a comprehensive wall chart of the social calendar of the heavens for the entire year, make detailed star charts of any region of the sky, or even construct a working planisphere. View objects and events from every perspective as you plot the orbits of the Galilean moons of Jupiter, make satellite track plots, and study eclipses and occultations. Render three-dimensional graphics to see how the planets look from a given viewpoint on a given date, and label special features such as Jupiter's Great Red Spot.

Updated Guide software posted 21 May 2004. Pagine in italiano su questo sito Web / Pages in Italian on this site About Project Pluto: Project Pluto supplies astronomical software, both commercial and freeware, to amateur and professional astronomers. The foremost product is the Guide CD-ROM Star Chart, a powerful general-purpose charting/desktop planetarium tool. The main purpose of this program is star chart generation, and it is unsurpassed in this area; but it also provides immense amounts of data on the objects displayed, ephemerides, telescope control, and other useful features. The Charon astrometry/photometry software is mostly used for CCD astrometry of minor planets and comets. It can automatically match the pattern of stars in an image to stars in astrometric catalogues such as the GSC or A2.0, greatly increasing the speed at which position/magnitude measurement is done. The orbit determination software can take a set of positional measurements of an asteroid, comet, or natural or artificial satellite, and determine its orbit.
