... These measurements are not as such high quality as those from modern CCD systems, but could contain important data about rare phenomena or source data for long-period investigations (e.g., concerning the solar cycle). ... The results of processing real spectral data and a comparison of processed photographic images and images taken with a TEK CCD are presented. ... We can use the programs created for processing digitized photographic images in order to process these data as well. ...

The Python programs offered here result from the development of methodology for processing image data with high precision, in a flexible command line system useful for astronomical and laboratory image processing. ... Alsvid is efficient in robotic and automated or scripted server processing of astronomical images, and also in interactive command line processing for research and visualization. ... In large part it replaces IRAF and IDL when scripted image processing is required. ...

Kashapova Institute of Solar­Terrestrial Physics, Siberian Division of Russian Academy of Sciences, P.O.Box 4026, Irkutsk, 664033, RUSSIA Abstract. ... To analyze long­period solar features we have to use both old and new observations, i.e., photographic images and frames from the CCD detector. ... To obtain intensity values from the photographic image we have Image Processing of Digitised Spectral Data 65 Figure 1. ...

An astronomer by training, I currently work at the Australia Telescope National Facility , part of the CSIRO . I am part of the computing group for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP), where my job is to develop science analysis software for the ASKAP processing pipeline. The huge volumes of data that ASKAP will produce mean that all observations will be processed automatically in pipelines. ... Matthew Whiting . ... Australia . ...

The software package ERA (Ephemerides for Research in Astronomy) is a problem-oriented software system for solving heterogeneous calculating tasks of Ephemeris and Dynamical Astronomy. The package makes it possible to produce ephemeris calculations needed for both planning various observational programs and processing the resulting observations. ... The system includes packages of processing the position observations by both the Least Squares Method and by Kalman filtering. ...

... The reduction system of observations FADPS (description in Russian) (Flexible Astronomical Data Processing System) for data of wide-band receivers of the first observation cabin of the radio telescope RATAN-600 had been created under the Unix-like operational system DEMOS for computers of the SM-1420-type (PDP/11) in 1987 for observation analysis and estimates of coordinates and flux densities of radio sources. ...
