Open Source Python Astronomy Software

Application for logging, planning, and searching astronomy observations. Written in Python/Tkinter with support for xmlrpc/SOAP as a secondary goal.

Astrophotography Lab (APLab) is a free program intended for anyone interested in astrophotography. It has two main purposes: - Interpreting data extracted from your astrophotos to produce useful information. - Using this information as a help for further improving your imaging results. The program consists of four main tools: an analyser tool, a calculator tool, a simulator tool and a plotting tool. The tools are connected, allowing you to transfer information between them, and easily go all the way from measuring your camera's sensor to finding the optimal settings for your next imaging session. APLab supports a wide range of CCD and DSLR cameras and telescopes by default, and you can easily add the necessary information for your own equipment. Check out the home page (linked to below) for more information and download links.

ChiantiPy is a Python package for the CHIANTI atomic database for astrophysical spectroscopy. It provides access to the database and the ability to calculate various physical quantities for the interpretation of astrophysical spectra.

A client program compatible with the INDI standard (see http://indi.sourceforge.net) for remote telescope and device control. It works under Windows as well as Linux. It is writen in Python and uses the GTK in order to display the GUI.

Python package OCFit includes 4 classes for analysis and fitting of O-C diagrams of Eclipsing binaries In a case of using this package for scientific purposes, please, cite our paper Gajdoš & Parimucha (2018) where you can also find more detail description about fitting functions and used models. For install it, download/clone this repository or download suitable binary file from releases. Not working yet! The first release comming soon... Requirements numpy matplotlib PyAstronomy pymc Installation is possible from source code or using build installation binary file (only for OS Windows). The following procedure is only for installation from the source code. Extract files and go to new-created folder. Running script setup.py the installation will be done: python setup.py install

The Online Astronomy Project will create a complete, web-enabled, robotic astronomy system that is hardware independent (ASCOM standard abstraction layer) and capable of servicing multiple telescopes and types of observation programs at once.

PyXPA is a Python interface to the XPA library (http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/xpa/ developed by the SAO/HEAD R&D Group (http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/)).

See original code here: https://github.com/jakeret/tf_unet Currently this project is based on Tensorflow 1.13 code base and there are no plans to transfer to TF version 2. The primary improvements to this code base include a training and evaluation framework, along with a fusion based approach to detection, combining a number of models (currently hard coded to two trained models) along with Sum Threshold as an additional "expert." Additional work is being done to add custom layers to this model for further experimentation, including Squeeze/Excitation layers (unimplemented.) Sum Threshold (in fusion as an expert, and in testing as a comparison) requires the use of AOFlagger by Andre Offringa. You can find this code at https://gitlab.com/aroffringa/aoflagger. This project will use the aoflagger program within the code, so you may need to ensure that any environment variables are set for aoflagger before use. cite: https://sourceforge.net/p/u-net-fusion-rfi/wiki/cite/

VOMON (Virtual Observatory Monitor) is a web application that can be configured to watch your virtual observatory services. It is a mashup of the AstroRuntime and the MARS network monitor.

La P.A.P.A. (Python Alternative for Programming Astrophysics) want to give an alternative to the astrophysicists (and any one that use RSI-IDL) for start programming in Python using similar functions as IDL and at the same time learn the power of Python.

Implementation in Python of some of the statistical methods provided by "asurv", the survival analysis software.
