Feature Overview

  • General purpose, but optimized for time series aperture photometry
  • Open source and written in Java, so runs under Windows, OS X, Linux
  • Real-time or post-processed calibration, analysis, and plotting
  • DS9-like image display with live photometer and WCS support
  • FITS header handling, viewing, editing
  • Multi-image processing (bias, dark, flat, CCD non-linearity correction)
  • Multi-exposure, multi-aperture differential photometry
  • Interactive multi-curve plotting
  • Astronomical coord. conversion (J2000, EoD, equatorial, ecliptic, galactic)
  • Astronomical time conversion (UTC, local, LST, JD, HJD, BJDTBD)
