NOTICE: PROPER will likely stop being supported at the end of 2026. It will remain available on Sourceforge after that, but there will be no updates or bug fixes. PROPER is a library of routines for the propagation of wavefronts through an optical system using Fourier-based methods. It was developed at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory for modeling stellar coronagraphs, but it can be applied to other optical systems were diffraction propagation is of concern. It is currently available for IDL...

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.

Pysolar is a Python library for calculating the position of the sun relative to the earth as a function of latitude, longitude, and time. There is also code included for other problems related to the development of photovoltaic systems. Still in alpha.

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.

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
