All numerical data and results in Astroart can be easily accessed and verified, using an intuitive
user interface:
Reliable results in photometry and astrometry can be achieved, whether single stars or full images
are analyzed.
Analyze and select astronomical images with the interactive image browser:
Adjust visualization instantly and toggle between single-image and grid modes.
Several filters (MCM, RW, etc.) can be used to study faint structures and jets inside comets.
The filters can be previewed in real-time to quickly find the best parameters.
Annotations are figures and labels placed over the image, on an separated layer.
They are saved as Comments in the FITS Header, so they are not lost even if
you process the image with other software. They can be shared and edited with the free AvisFV FITS viewer.
The astrometric and photometric calibration is a key feature of Astroart since its first release. It can be
assisted by an integrated star atlas:
Photometry on sequences can be quickly configured, and custom reports with graphs can be
generated automatically.
Astrometry can also be achieved in a single click using the integrated plate solving engine.
Try its speed and reliability with the demo version.
After the coordinates or magnitude of a celestial object are measured, a report
with syntax highlighting can be generated:
The example above shows a MPC report. Other reports (for example, AAVSO) can be created using the
Batch Photometry command or custom scripts.
The star atlas is optimized for speed, even with millions of objects:
it can explore deep star fields in real-time (up to 21° magnitude) and one million minor planets.
