Parallel Iterative Deconvolution is a multithreaded ImageJ plugin for iterative image deblurring.

Night Vision is a "planetarium" program that will display the heavens from any location on earth. Viewing options allow the user to control which sky objects to display, which font to use, and manipulation of various star parameters. Time may be set to run at multiple speeds, including backwards. Star charts may be printed. Night Vision is written in Java, allowing it to run on all major desktop systems (includes PCs, Macs, Linux, ...). It has been designed to be readily translatable into other languages. Additionally a port of Night Vision's Solar System window has been ported from Java to the Rust programming language, providing executables that can run directly on the host operating system.

Java based astronomical logging software which stores it's data in a free and open XML based format (OpenAstronomyLog). Discontinued project: Please check out the fork: https://github.com/capape/observation-manager for an updated version

This software is a remake of Foucault Test Image Analyzer created by Dejan Vucinic and published on SourceForge at 2002 (https://sourceforge.net/projects/foucault/). "If you are an amateur telescope maker, this software can take the tedium out of measuring the shape of your mirror."

A collection of astronomy tools written in java: sky map, astronomical events, ephemerides, planet visibility, moon calendar and galilean moons.

Calculates the shape of a telescope mirror from a sequence of Foucault test images. Java-based GUI simplifies entering and organizing measurement data. Logging and comparison functions enable quantification of the effects of various figuring strokes.

MobileStarChart is a MIDP1.0/2.0 midlet for Java-enabled mobile/cell phones or handheld device. It simulates whole sky at any point on earth with constellations, stars up to 6 mag, solar systems and some other celestial objects.

Specview is a Java GUI_based application for 1-D spectral visualization and analysis of astronomical spectrograms generated by a variety of observatories and instruments. Note that we no longer provide file distributions of this software. You are encouraged to visit the specview web site download page: http://www.stsci.edu/institute/software_hardware/specview/download to retrieve an installer appropriate for your platform.

VStar is a multi-platform, easy-to-use variable star observation visualisation and analysis tool. Data can be read from a file or the AAVSO database, light curves and phase plots created, period analysis performed, and filters applied. Plugins can be developed, e.g. to make additional observation sources available.

retep is a collection of Java API's covering PDF, XML, J2EE , Swing and now NetBeans modules for displaying astronomical maps, controlling modern "Go-To" telescopes - all in java., and accessing online databases.

he JAVA library is designed to read JPL DE/LE ephemerides (DE200, DE405, DE406, DE421, DE422, DE430, DE431, DE440 and DE441) and to calculated the position and velocity of the Sun, Moon, eight major planets and Pluto, also the earth nutations and the lunar librations if they are part of the ephemeris.

OpenAstrology is Java based Object-orientated implementation of Astrology. OpenAstrology will provide a platfrom to plug-in in the knowledge of Astrology and the derived solution will be the best real time Astrology solution

Astro Info is a multi-lingual astronomical ephemeris for the PalmOS that provides data for our solar system and other objects. If you wish to get involved, please download a copy of the source code from CVS.

MoonPlanner is a Java calendar that allow to view moon's phases, moon's signs (constellations in which the moon is), and show the part of the plant corresponding to each sign (flower, fruit, leaf or root). For every calendar's day the user can attach notes (that are stored in a persistent database). At the startup the program will remind you if there will be notes for current day. Timezones and localizations (En, IT) are supported by the application. This calendar is usable between 1900 and 2020. This tool can be useful to plan gardening tasks or to view some astrology informations. References and requirements: - JRE/JDK version 1.5 or later must be installed on host computer. - UI are made using SWT by Eclipse (see http://www.eclipse.org/swt/). - The software uses AstroLib library version 1.1.5 provided by Mark Huss to calculate Moon's phases (http://mhuss.com/AstroLib.html). - The software uses Apache Derby 10.9.1.0 (http://db.apache.org/derby/) as embedded database.

Parallel Spectral Deconvolution is a multithreaded ImageJ plugin for spectral image deblurring.

PaperScope is a graphical tool for exploring the data holdings of the Astrophysics Data System (http://adsabs.harvard.edu/). It enables the user to explore the relationships between Astrophysics papers and locate papers of research interest.

ProStack - a platform for image processing and analysis. It implements various image processing methods as separate modules, that can be joined in a complex image processing scenario by use of a graphical user interface. RPMs are available at https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories/home:mackoel:compbio

Gridder is a group of portlets that simplify the use and administration of grid services. Especially for job submission management. Gridder also extends and documents the functionality of the OGCE Bundle. It is plenty of useful documentation.

Ham's Actor is a software for radio hams. Is a bundle of many functions and tools, so you just have to have one software. Functions: Log Book, GrayLine, satellite tracing, contesting, maps, callbook, and so on...
