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 and transparency in citizen science astronomy.

Gimp Gradient Extrapolate is a plugin for Gimp 2.8. It fills gaps or removes objects, both of which are surrounded by a gradient like smooth image structure (e.g. sky). Refer to the wiki to see how to use it. Note, since this plug-in is written in python and involves optimization problems and non-filter operations, this script's runtime can be rather long, depending on the size of your image selection.
