» AIPS++ - [open source - Unix, WinNT] The next generation AIPS software.

» AIPS - Astronomical Image Processing System - [open source - Unix, and VMS] A software package for interactive (and, optionally, batch) calibration and editing of radio interferometric data and for the calibration, construction, display and analysis of astronomical images made from those data using Fourier synthesis methods.

» AstroArt - [commercial, demo available - Win95/98/NT] A complete software product for analysis and processing of astronomical images. With the built-in star atlas based on the Guide Star Catalogue, it is also possible to perform astrometric and photometric calibration on your images.

» Auriga Imaging - Auriga Imaging's program RegiStar automatically registers (aligns) astrophotos -- no user intervention required.

» CCDSoFT - Image processing and camera control software providing control for CCD cameras, performing image processing, data reduction, and scripted data acquisition.

» ESO-MIDAS: Image Data Analysis System - [open source - Linux/Unix, VAX/VMS/OpenVMS] General tools for image processing and data reduction with emphasis on astronomical applications including stellar and surface photometry, image sharpening and decomposition, as well as imaging and special reduction packages for ESO instrumentation.

» IDL - Interactive Data Language - [commercial - multiplatform] Data analysis, visualization, and cross-platform application development software.

» IRAF - Image Reduction and Analysis Facility - [open source - Unix, OpenVMS] A general-purpose software system for the reduction and analysis of astronomical data. IRAF is written and supported by the IRAF programming group at the National Optical Astronomy Observatories (NOAO) in Tucson, Arizona.

» ISDA - Irregularly Spaced Data Analysis - [Free - MSDOS, dosemu] Program to analyse irregularly spaced time series - variable star light curves.

» MaxIm DL - [commercial, demo available - Win95/98/NT/2000] Image processing and CCD camera control software for astronomical imaging. Supports Apogee, Celestron, FLI, HiSIS, Meade, SBIG, and Starlight Xpress CCD cameras; video cameras, autoguiders, and filter wheels. ASCOM compliant.

» MIIPS - [open source - OpenVMS/Unix] Multipurpose Interactive Image Processing System does astronomical image analysis. The main package runs on OpenVMS, but many subsets can run on Unix. All source code is provided.

» MIRIAD - Multichannel Image Reconstruction, Image Analysis and Display - [open source - Unix, VMS] A toolbox in the form of an environment with a large set of moderate-sized programs which perform individual tasks involving calibration, mapping, deconvolution and image analysis of interferometric data.

» Picture Window Image Editing Software - Picture Window is a popular tool among serious amateur astrophotographers. By Digital Light and Color.

» PV-WAVE - [commercial - multiplatform] Advanced visual data analysis software.

» Quantum Image - [commercial - Win95/98/NT] Image restoration program, it can restore and enhance defect images (ex. out of focus and noise).

» Registax - Registax is a freeware tool that registers, stacks and processes image sequences. The program accepts either BMP's or AVI-files as input and will save the results as BMP or FITS.

TopDir is a human edited web directory with various categories. Our mission is to organize theme based websites and remove the clutter from the information. We strive to provide context based website results to our visitors. This directory is an evolving one and we regularly add new categories, if there is a necessity. Members can suggest new categories and websites for inclusion. This is one stop promotion site for webmasters and website owners. We invite you to browse the categories and suggest your website url for an editor review. This page is focused on one particular aspect of Science, Astronomy, Software, Image Processing and Data Analysis.

Help build the largest human-edited directory on the web. Soumettre un site - Open Directory Project - Devenir Editeur

Web directories list the websites by theme. The links in a web directory are collected, edited and organized by humans. Yahoo and Dmoz ODP(Open Directory Project) are considered as the best human-edited web directories on the Internet and they are one of the most trusted and relied traffic sources. Since these directories get thousands of submissions every day, it is sometimes difficult to get listed in them and your URL may take a long time to be reviewed and listed. Generally good directory listings give a surprise boost to your link popularity.
