CMD Plot Tool calculates and plots Colour Magnitude Diagrams (CMDs) from astronomical photometric data, e.g. of a star cluster observed in two filter bandpasses. It can handle multiple file formats (plain text, DAOPHOT .mag files, ACS Survey of Galactic Globular Clusters .zpt files) to generate professional and customised plots, without the usual steep learning curve. Development using Python, OOP and a formal software development lifecycle model (Agile) allowed for the creation of an...

RTS2 is project to create an open source environment for control of a fully autonomous observatory. It is running about dozen fully autonomous observatories. Its modular design allow easily addition of new devices (to already huge supported HW list).

AstroTortilla is a wrapper around common astrophotography tools intended to automate basic tasks such as polar alignment and goto correction. Not in active development presently.

FABS is a program designed to run a fluorescence/absorption spectrometer on Windows. The program analyzes spectra and provides graphs and data files. Users may choose to input video files from cell phones or other cameras, still images, or even live streams of video from webcams. FABS can perform any necessary calibration and image preprocessing. Experienced users have a number of more advanced options such as background subtraction, adjustments for nonlinearities in detector response,...

Python package for calculation right ascension, declination, and distance for solar system planets.

L.E.I.C.A. (Long Exposure Internet CAmera) is an application that takes input from your webcam, or v4l2 device, and makes a long-exposure image. Until now there's only a python binding for this app, soon there will be a C/C++ SDL one

GIRAFFE Base Line Data Reduction Software is a set of python scripts and modules and a C library to reduce FITS images produced by the Very Large Telescope (VLT) FLAMES instrument.

Sparrow is a package for single-dish astronomical data-reduction developed by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory.

UTS: Unified Telescope System. A modular system for controlling astronomical observatories.

NTuple is a Python module used by high-energy physicists and astrophysicists to easily and efficiently access ntuple data stored in large ROOT data stores. Specifically, NTuple provides a friendly Pythonic interface to TNtuples and TTrees stored in TFiles

Application for logging, planning, and searching astronomy observations. Written in Python/Tkinter with support for xmlrpc/SOAP as a secondary goal.

The Online Astronomy Project will create a complete, web-enabled, robotic astronomy system that is hardware independent (ASCOM standard abstraction layer) and capable of servicing multiple telescopes and types of observation programs at once.

PyXPA is a Python interface to the XPA library (http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/xpa/ developed by the SAO/HEAD R&D Group (http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/)).
