openSkyMatch
Matches OpenScience Observatories images with astronomical catalogs
openSkyMatch is a collection of Linux shell and Python scripts designed for the OpenScience Observatories program.
It automates the identification and matching of detected celestial objects in locally captured FITS images with entries in large-scale sky catalogs, notably Pan-STARRS1 DR2 (II/389/ps1_dr2).
The toolkit supports data preprocessing, coordinate correlation, and catalog-based validation of astronomical detections.
All tools are open-source and optimized for reproducibility...
