3/15/2024 0 Comments NIH software called ImageJ or Fiji(note: tutorial, or tutlet :D, expects that you use fits files, have set point cooling and such, for best results. (browse website for pure ImageJ download, or search google for AstroImageJ)Īnd here is (as promised in another thread), first of tutlets (can we name short tutorials like that - I kind of like the name. Here is website that you can download software from: You can install them all side by side, as installation is merely unzipping to a user chosen directory / folder (it comes with JRE so I don't think that you need to install Java separately - but not sure about that one, I had Java Runtime already on my computer). So for my initial "tutorial-lets", I will focus on Fiji. For anyone looking to do a bit of photometry / astrometry and plate solving / measuring exo planets and such - this is package that I would recommend - it should support all features present in Fiji as well - but I have not tried it (probably requires manual install). Fiji is just ImageJ (as acronym says) but loaded with bunch of most used and very useful plugins - this version I recommend for installation.ĪstroImageJ is separate project, I believe - it is also ImageJ but comes loaded with astronomy useful plugins and macros and its modified for astro use. ImageJ is basic / "naked" distribution of software. It's written in Java (so you can run it on OS of choice), and it features nice plugin repository and scripting capabilities (you can write your own scripts or plugins for it). So what is ImageJ / Fiji / AstroImageJ? It is open source / free software package for scientific image manipulation. I'll also include some additional plugins that I wrote for this software package for everyone to use. Any questions or need for clarification are welcome of course. I invite all interested members to give their suggestions on methods they use with this software package. I planned to this thread a long time ago, but somehow never got to it.Įnvisioned like sort of tutorial (or collection there of), I'll post here some techniques on how to process astro images, or better call it data reduction stage (prior to actual processing step and up to stacking phase).
